still looking good....
have some 'headroom' on the final price, so can throw an extra couple of hundred in for good measure 2 mins before the auction end if need be, just to keep the snpers at bay..
the plan is, if i loose this one, i'm gonna have the grey one, and have the engine rebuilt..

rusty patches on roof have been analized, and a plan hatched.
many many scratches polished out.
door panel re attached correctly
found power leads, big fat shiny gold fuse and audio leads already under seat for an amp and sub! (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/cool.gif) (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/cool.gif)
re attached 101 piecs of trim..

wheels look good on that van (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/grin.gif)
Looks nice mate, just needs that trailer (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/up.gif)
wheels unfortunatley are starting to rust, but but are only about £35 each anyway, so will probably be changed for a new set.
greame. yup, just needs the 'special' trailer to complete the image!! (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/up.gif)
are you gonna spray the trailer to match? (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/cool.gif)
mmmmmm gold and checker plate (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/up.gif)
that sounds like a good combo to me!!! (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/grin.gif) (http://www.aaci-beds.co.uk/forum/smileys/up.gif)

Is this going to be a 'all weather' vehicle - so we can always expect you to arrive in a yank whatever the weather?

yes and yes.
it passed the MOT with flying colours today, Nathan said its in excelent shape underneath, with lots of recent parts - shocks, brake pipes etc..
insurance cover note should be here tomorrow (was sent 1st class this morning), so will be taxed tomorrow afternoon! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Excellent, looking forward to seeing it.
