Ewww! What a wrong'un. Unlike the van, which is white enough for a KKK rally :ok

That's not a very good analogy is it? :shock: :oops:

Well....

All the windows are now back in, pop top roof back on, bumpers and all the other shnizel done too. Rob is now on his own putting the interior back in and I have got to say its like a totally different van. Pete the sprayer has gone to town protecting all the inside of the seams as well as spraying the roof too. It really is something to be proud of this van, its just screaming out for its new Mefros and BFG a/t's to go on as well as the Westy and Syncro stickers.
