Was that just for the re spray or was there any welding/replacing panels?
It is looking good. Looking forward to seeing the finished article

Re: my van respray
Looking good so far. I'm guessin the final bill will be about £3,800. Let us know, so that people can get an idea what a proper job costs. Cheers.
