To be honest bud i'm prob gonna be starting priming though the week but your more then welcome to pop round, I think Mr Scoops will be round sometime over the weekend to pick up his beam...

i might catch a lift with scoops (if he's hearing this) he might need a hand with that beam anyways

No worries dude..

Well i had to pinch Carls spray gun cos mine are now shagged. And i started priming the van
But new gun in the dark couldn't see what i was doing so get a far few runs

I'll give you a shout Spence, it'll more than likely be Sunday as I am off to Bristol Beer Festival on Friday from 11:30 to 16:00 so will be zombified all day Saturday!!!

hahaa, have you got the runs out with that 400 grit yet? Despite the runs, the filling was a top job bud.

Mate it was 800grit

The roof light has arrived from the states, but bugger me is it gonna need some work to make it fit right, i think i've bitten off more then i can chew with this one

it will look good though when its done

Those roof lights do look cool as.....

Harv not sure if i'm gonna be able to get it to fit and look right.. So may see if i can sell it on a buy another on and see if that works

Thats the first and only time I have ever heard you say that bud! You WILL make it fit, because you are a pro dabbler, think positively.

Yes mate it hurt to say it as well

But who cares it's only metal so watch this space..

Here she is stripped..



And marked ready for some grinder action



And that did really work very so i'm gonna have to mess around some more..







And remember the side panel..



I know it's filler but it'll do till i find a replacement panel for it looks loads straighter and it's primed so no more wolfy.. Also flatted the lower panel as well that took ages cos it's hand painted with runs all over it.
I was well happy to through some primer on it cos it makes it mine..

top work as always rich.........that lights gonna look bitchin when its sorted!!

Cheers Frank glad you like just hope i can sort that god damn light out..

Anyway the drivers side is now primed..

looks great dude it just gets beter and beter dude

that light is Focking sweet man, the indicator mounted it the top....ummmm.

you will get it right man!!

Cheers dude if it all works out right for the roof light then the little side light bulb on the top will probably go blue and on a flasher

Lookin really good dude! Top work on that light!

Cheers Dave i wish i had bought the same light as i had on the crewy but thought this one was completly different

Well i've been out playing with the light, bit's of card and metal and the light WILL be going on

Cool will look great and looks hard as in primar

Looking good Rich, the light is coming on well, I personally miss the Wolffy logo dude, but hey, each to their own

Harv if the sign writing was old and done in the states or even looked nice then it would of stayed, but as it was the blokes business that i got her from and had his phone number on it had to go. Sorry mate
