Let the rebuild begin

I'll go against everyone and say get rid of the bloody racks! They're a menace to the panel van world!

Good to see the kids are getting involved mate!

keep the roof rack, keep the rear bar, put GTS guards on and add a full length grille

that's how they used to be built in the 70/80s and it still looks great

here's some cheap / new wheels that will suit the age

I can see where you are coming from 0488tinter. Kinda please yourself. I think the way I have restored my XU1 has rubbed of on my family. Because the van is an original Sandman They want top keep it as original as poss without going to far. I do like your suggestions who hasn,t got a soft spot for gts guards and I love extended grilles.

Cheers Dave
