1985 t25 panel van project pic heavy!!!!

Post by Scott presswood »

Hi all been a member here for a while now but this been my first proper post. I came across my panel about a year ago and have only just started to get some time on it.wen I first picked it up having to dig it out of I pile of bricks the previous owner built round it lol.first glance didn't look that bad usual battery box issues and some seam rash but I did notice it had been painted before hand and badly! So I expected to see some gobo under the paint at some point but not as much as I did lol.ive been in the body work and resto business for about 12years now and other than a quick paint freshen up this is the first full resto for myself so I carnt wait to get it finished and travel England with my family in it.iv been into dubs for a long while and worked on many more i love to own a split one day but in my trade we tend not to get the bonuses of a banker so I doubt il be getting one lol but nice to dream so il get some pics up as soon as I no how to haha :):):)
