Thanks guys and gals.....it's been a long time coming and I'm soooooooooooooo happy the paint bit is over. Now to sit down and have Christmas every day opening all the boxes of stuff I've been collecting for the past 2 years. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Christmas :lol:

BTW, the paint job was done by my daughters boyfriend....he's a qualified painter but gave up the trade a while back and this was his first paint job for 5 years. I've given him permission to keep taking my daughter out..... for a while longer anyway.

Yep the body was done all at the same time. My painter is a short bloke so I had to take the back wheels off and lower it all the way on a trolley jack.

Jamaica lime i think the colour is. It's the colour my van is going to be. those sort of colours always looks funny in photos for some reason. not quite right.
