My pride project

[ubeuty]

Made up some jockey wheels for transporting to panelbeater for roof repair on Insurance luckily and might get other bits tidied up also

[FC427]

Are you going to weld up the side window holes  ??? ??? ??? ???......FC427.......

[ubeuty]

Yep getting that done also, he said to get best job he will replace the whole panel with the vents

[Paul In Ireland]

Surely there was other "damage" done when it fell that the insurance need to pay for. Or have they settled with you for a fixed sum already?

[Ed]

Sounds like a good excuse for a chop... :)

I love the pic with the jockey wheels. Gives the beast a Reliant Robin look ;D

Keep up the good work. The roof repair looks pretty good from the photos.

Looking good.
If your panel beater is replacing the side panels, make sure he keeps the vents.
If you decide to not use them for a cleaner look, I would suggest you save the vents.
There are many vans that have these removed and always someone looking for them.

Back from Burkes Metalworks with repaired roof and side windows filled in

[ubeuty]

Test can of colour I'm interested in, still a bit worried about putting back up on stands as shakes are still rattling the f**k out of us...

[FCRB26]

Pheeeewwww he kept them...

[Ed]

Nice job...

[vmx-mxr]

Good thread

After experiencing those aftershocks first hand when we were deployed over there I don't blame you regarding the stands!!!

Could I suggest a braced wooden cradle instead so you don't have to falter on this great looking build !

The filled windows sure look like Bourkes know their trade.

UBEAUTY  The car is coming along nicely you look like you might beat me to the end but who cares it just means more vans on the roads and not in scrap yards or paddocks rusting away keep up the good work.

Off to fabricators finally after earthquake repairs all done to house garage and replacement of driveway
