Hey guys, thought i would put some pic's on how we are going with my van.

The start of the welding


i hope to have it on the road in the next week or two..

looked at some colours today but still a bit iffy.

used some ply a mate gave me and just used the old ones as a template.
I got some vinyl from spotlight for 9.95M and covered it with that.
Is pretty easy to do if you still have the old trims
