the spoiler probably won't fit without slight mods, the WB stone tray is different to the rest.

Yay. We here at mysandman.com.au knew you'd finally find it! I mean its taken me 24 years to finally find mine and make proper use of it! One can only imagine all the mischief I would have gotten up to if I had found mine earlier!!!!

Thanks everyone, I have some Autosol, I need somthing that is fairly abrasive as there is a large amount of "stuff" on them, may have to use some fine wet and dry first then polish, polsih & polish. thanks [MENTION=9]agr071[/MENTION]

[MENTION=413]Vombil[/MENTION], the reason I was choosing Deauville Blue is that my first car was painted in that colour so its kinda a re-connection with my mis-spent youth

It wont be a show car it will be a driver but I do want it to look resonable, why go to the effort if bog is going to crack out? somthing my father drummed into me from day 1: "Do it once, Do it right or all your doing is throwing effort after foolishness." but yeah, I do agree with ya somthing about a plain white windowless panno, they just.....yeah ya know?

Ok, I had a panel beater look over the van yesterday. This isnt just anyone he is the best ol school beater in town, I have seen the quality of his work that rolls out of his shop. Damn good too. He says that he can fill the windows and do the rust repairs. If he was to strip it and do everything: ten to 15 grand. If I strip it, paint alone will be 6 grand. he also said that when I have done anoither section to drop in and he will give me some primer so as to stop the corrosion coming up whilst its in bare metal.

Any thoughts? Does this sound right?

Not sure on the panel beater's price, but I reckon white or silver can look great on a shell without windows, and the repair flaws won't show up so bad on either of these colours. Either of these colours with black trim, N66 rims, HX/HZ Sandman blackouts and no stripes looks great. I never advocate lowering them much though as they look better closer to stock, maybe lowered an inch. Everyone has different taste so do what pleases you! Just don't paint it green with purple stripes and orange trim!
