    Dachavu

    I just thought I would post up today's activity with the yellow van, Rodney washed the underneath thoroughly then applied a primer rust inhibitor, tomorrow we will paint the whole underneath with chassis black, most of the rust has now been cut out and repaired, only the quarter panel is left to do, it has been hit very hard, and was bogged and repaired badly....








    winching her onto the trailer


    Over the wash bay


    after washing the van the top dash between the windscreen and the dash pad which had been sprayed with black paint, was back to its original brown




    Back on the scaffold support which we built for the Red van

    Yes they are twins ski man, what are your tags, they could have been in the production line together ours was Adelaide built and assembled in Dandenong. You aren't painting yours jasmine though from what I can remember? pity we could put them together at van nats....that is why I called the thread Day Sha Vu, I think I spelt it wrong though, I feel like we have done all that before, and you think you have seen all that before

    Déjà vu is what you would be after then. Theres also Déjà Moo - the feeling you've heard the same bull before - and Déjà Poo- the feeling you've seen this shit before.
