I really like all the SA-style RHD shell mods (well I would, wouldn't I
) That front bumper is pure Starwars Stormtrooper

Re: The rebuild has begun........
Very tidy execution of the subtle little mods here and there. Excellent attention to detail around the underfloor hole. Thought went into those bumpers and they really look the part - no doubt many hours looking at other 4x4's. Maybe those guys in the USA should look at those bumpers to see how its done!
Well done Dia

Re: The rebuild has begun........
Excellent progress there Dai! Am I right in saying that its a tight squeeze getting the van through the door with the roof on?

Re: The rebuild has begun........
