MK2 Panelvan.... getting there

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

at the moment we are just in the process of welding up the windows.
once that is done its into primer and then on the road..
some of you may remember this van as it is Adrians old one


just arrived

stripped all interior out




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.
