Ok, Dubfreeze only just over a day away and i have bits of van everywhere except where they are supposed to be.

I now have a few panels done and the front seats, just need to get the rest back together in time.

Busy day ahead tomorrow i guess.

Getting there, got all the body panels done, curtains replaced, front seats and buddy seat re-covered. Bed is covered loosly for now but will have time to finish that properly tomorrow, then i can start thinking about the woodwork and carpeting.

Well we have finished recovering the bed area properly, I found the 12v fault on the lighting circuit and replaced the strip lights, and the new floor covering is down after some help from timbertech to repair the rotten chipboard. and the new table and fittings are in place.

next job will be the carpet around the front seats but that will be waiting till summer i think.

everything else is sorted and we have just completed our first weekend in the van with Pickering and a tour accross the dales to Ingleton and Clitheroe.

here's the updated pics
