Thread: Found one 5 years on.

    Smile Found one 5 years on.

    Still getting there.

    The body was near the paint booth door when lock down started, so will be some time before we are able to continue.

    To recap as to what she was born as.
    Brisbane built early March, so good to have the side vents - gills.
    308 Manual
    Barbados Lime Green, the family could not live with, so we decided she would look much nicer in Chrome Yellow, a sister to my original one.

    My plan was for a 5 year rebuild, so working out ok, some sound advice though, what ever you think a full rebuild is going to cost, ( Double it)

    Agree with the rebuild price!
    One car I thought it would be about 20 k as it did now look to bad!
    70k latter it was complete and that did not include my time.
    Your van will look beautiful when completed.
