Minty Van is getting a facelift!

[dirtygertie]

Its home...windows are in (pig of a job!) Inside has been cleaned ready for waxoil & insulation tomorrow then we'll start on replacing the carpet trim with new. All the exterior black bots need a bit of attention too. The wood is on order for the units & plans have been drawn up - let phase 3 commence!

On the home straight...there's light at the end of the tunnell...not long now before we can use the van again!!! Wheels have been painted, baby moons & white walls. The units are almost finished and we have a new floor.

thanks john (she says like she's done all the work! )
I forgot to post this from last week - all the scruffy headlining has been replaced with carpet trim and new lighting installed; its starting to look really cosy now. Work has started on the rear 'wardrobe' unit which we have plans to extend forwards a little to allow for an extra cupboard.

I also forgot to post that we now have lovely comfortable leather Audi seats. Nigel had to adjust the swivel plate before he fitted them as it was too high, but hes done a great job


The units fit!! I've covered the fridge in a couple of tiles left from the floor.

Looking good, can't wait to see it. Hopefully Busfest ( if my vans ruining )

Whoa on a minute there Mr. Watson! Come hell or high water you'll be at Busfest - even if the duke isn't on the road (it WILL be!! ) we'll make sure you have somewhere to kip & somewhere to cook...just don't poo in my toilet!

Looking very special!

Getting very excited about finishing this now, I'll have to find something else to keep the bloke busy!
A couple of pics from today




We're really pleased with it, its been 3 months since he started by cutting the window in the sliding door and we've both worked really hard (nige more than me) it'll be great to get away and appreciate our toil

On the last leg now...the list of jobs is getting shorter by the day




I love it!! ♡
