sorry dont mean to hijack the thread but noticed this number is wolverhampton....which isnt a million miles from me.
I was looking for someone to advise on whether my bus's rust spots were treatable or what i could do to bring the whole bodywork up to a better standard than it is currently... are these people the guys to talk to ?

restoration is not these guys thing mate.
but for a good cheap tidy up of the paintwork ...they are the ones in wolverhampton.
to stop rust coming back permanantly you would have to consider surgery.
I had mine done by them and now, 4 yrs on, the seam rust is beggining to come back.

arrgh...
i have some areas where the rust has worked through (small amount on wheel arch) other areas it looks fairly much surface coverings 9 i scraped a bit with my nail and it flakes and underneath seems ok...
i was going to start with my local garage and see if they knew anyone who could do a bodywork overhaul for me and then do a re-spray.

Hi Rich, can you tell me how the paint is split colour wise inside? As I've put similar colours on mine 5 years ago but never striped it down, so I got over spray within the door shuts (you only see it when you open the door
) Next year she deserves another coat and want to strip her this time
really nice job,
really nice job,

Is it really four years on already since you had the van resprayed?
I remember the pics of the process.

If you never have a route planned ...how can you ever be lost?
