Right folks, I've been over to the build earlier todat, so here's the news so far...... Luke and Kev(rover) and Ali (mealic) are there and the donor is pretty much stripped. Luke is hoping to start welding sometime this afternoon/evening. On their way up are Alan N, and Matt(black minibus) along with the second van (many thanks to Muttley and psv-hgv lift for that). I'm on night shift tonight so can't be there, but will be back tomorrow and Saturday to hopefully get it painted, but we could do with more volunteers to help, especially with the body preparation........... Will update again when i get chance........
If you want a real van.......You gotta get a Transit!!!!
