Are you going to paint the Statesman grille like it was in the original photo?

Well done Rod and Jen, good to see you got to do one 'your way'. So did I interpret an earlier post right the name will be 'the gambler' ?

Yes we have named the van the gambler
and we are going to leave the grill all silver

Not sure about naming it something that has already got a history.
The Gambler is a pretty well known Van.

Never did I get disrespectful or state they couldn't name the their Van "The Gambler". Anyone who feels I did can take it up with me personally.
I didn't and don't think it the right thing to do as another already has the name and it is a Holden Panel Van and a member of the same Van club as Rod & Jenny.
This is being respectful to John the owner of the "Orange" Van with the number plate GAMBLR who has had that name in use for a long time.

I didn't feel you were being disrespectful Inni, I felt you were just explaining the etiquette involved which I felt that Rod and Jenn took exactly how you meant it, I think Rod and Jenns van is theirs to name and do with what they want, and I just look at it as another interpretation of the moniker.

Mate, I am an ex interstate truck driver and nick names and truck names are everything but quite a few truck drivers have my nick name but I haven't found any with my trucks handle, version I,II & III which doesn't surprise me, LMAO.

I know Rod & Jenny and I'm sure they took as intended. Others have gone on an attack of sorts.
Personally I like both Rod & Jenny along with their contributions and they have built a neat Van to their liking that I'm sure they will enjoy.

As for naming, that again is up to them. I just think it's best to be respectful to others and see if you can be original.
