I'm amazed by how rusty even the newer vans get.
Good work m8.What about the conversion to camper?

Spent the morning in the hospital getting a tiny tiny lump of black stuff removed from my upper eyelid...

Even been advised to take the next 4-5 days off work because of the severe scratching to the cornea :? So I am having a nice long weekend before going back to work on monday. I dont think I will be doing much to the van
