WEEKEND MAKEOVER

[Luke]

We need to plan, what we are going do to do, ie engine, wheels, styling, interior, paint, as well as general overhauling to brakes suspension etc, we need lists of parts/materials that we need to acquire, then we need a schedule of works so that the jobs get done in the correct order, with no double working, Finally we need to arrange for an MOT, before showing at Transitmania

thats it ake - planned with military presicion or is it controlled chaos

we can work out a time line so we can see where we should be at certain times - the main one being actually spraying it - might have to be satarday night?? to allow it to be built back up sunday - it'd be nice to get access to an oven but mabe a few propane heaters on it over night would do the job we'll have to look into that one which reminds me ................ anyone want to do the actual spraying of the van

Can anyone offer to do a detailed filming of this job? I can probably get a webcam set up to take timelapse pictures but it would need to be a wide shot and in a static position. I could possibly sort a webcam live stream so other members can log on and view the work in realtime, but it would be a shame not to have a 'proper' camera filming as we go.

[madmark_50484]

Alan might be able to help with that when hes not doing his plastic fantastic bits

[matthew2riches]

I have got a Sony PDW-F800 pro camera that we used for a tv advert but if we're doing it next year I might not be able to hang on to it for that long.

There will be an empty seat in my van going down should any one want to fill it

[AlanN]

Time laps film is a good idea... As for filming, Id leave that to the pro's

tbh alan as good as your filming/editing etc is i think your handywork on the van will be more in demand

what we could do with for filming is somone who's good at it but no good at working on the van, but still wants to get involved with the project

[ake]

And someone whos really good at cooking and feeding the workers

[Nadjenka]

Women are supposed to be good at multitasking... I should be able to hold the camera a turn the burgers at the same time... Will see what'll burn first...

[grunty]

what you are planning on doing will be awsome.
there are a lot of charities out there that will always need help from people like you, i have had help from a couple of good charities over the past 2 years and its amazing what they do.
i will see if i can get a tv crew interested as i think it was channel 4 that did donnas dream house on secret millionare which does a lot with pasic and click.
if you are stuck for a charity to donate to , i can honestly say that pasic and click sargent are 2 well worth while causes that help young children and familys with young children that are fighting cancer.
my youngest daughter was diagnosed with cancer last febuary and my eldest has just been diagnose with the cancer my wife has.
