Victors new look

Post by Sleedale »

OH decided to tart up Victor, using info on here and others, hoping to sort out the few bits of surface rust and dings. Well, he wasn't aiming for a real professional finish, just a colour change as he really likes the two colour vans, so here is Victor today

Rollered, not flatted back, slightly orange peel effect but we like it.

Happy Victor :D

Looks well Sue.

Was looking at mine last week considering two tone finish but could not decide position of colour change?

Never liked the look of the vans that paint the solid color around the front windscreen so was going to have the border just below the front vertical gutter and paint the grilles as well.

May now give it a go? Orange over white?
