Welcome. :ok

How long has it been laying around like that? It will need a fair bit of work but at least you'll be saving it from the scrappers :ok

Hi all , its been drystored last 7 years , been outside for a year , my brothers company creative coachworks has been to check it for me , its pretty solid , mostly appearance more than structual. It should be here tuesday 16th. If i can find a sliding door from a bus that would be good. May not window it on that side .. :ok

Brilliant, the vans are rare and this one looks like a great base for a rebuild. Another one saved - good luck and enjoy the project.
