Hi all, been a forum member for a couple of months, getting info to help me understand my newly aquired camper. It's a 1988 Westcountry Kestral conversion with a 1.6td 1V engine. Its a bit of a mission at the mo, as we bought it off ebay in March from Cornwall.
Put another way, my mates a mechanic and Im a welder/fabricator and we are 3 months and a quarter of the way into making a decent job of it.
My wife, paitent as she is (ahem), wonders why the very thing that we should be enjoying as a family is taking so much of my family time up.
Still learning loads and enjoying (a bit) the experience.
Anyway has anyone got a paint code for the standard steel bumpers, looks to me as it may have a bit green in the black.
Many thanks for all the stuff we have learned from all the posts we have read and thanks in advance for any replys.
Regards Pete

welcome jacko4.

I would think that black was the colour... the green tinge may be symptom of fade.

tried T-cut on a small part?

unless of course the van converters changed the colour themselves.
