Mk1 8cwt van project

Picked up a Mk1 8cwt panel van a few weeks ago - mechanically good - just needs a re-spray.
It's got a 1600 with a 4 speed! Goes alright. Came with spares including gearbox and rear doors.
Pretty much rust free, just some minor panel damage.
It is missing the F.O.R.D letters from the bonnet though, and interior is avarage..
once I get a few days off work, I'll start stripping it down ready for paint!
Pics of it's current state (as it was when I picked it up)




I used to own a Mk2 sedan about 5 years ago - but it was only for a short time.. and this is my first Van, so I'm looking forward to it :-)
Cheers,

KJ :-)
