Keep in mind that the logo you are looking at is the Tassie script and the script they used on the show vans for the Melbourne market where this van was made was different !! PM me if you want,  otherwise have fun!

I noticed that NES. Might have been a bit too tongue in cheek for some. I read it a few times before realising you weren't having a serious dig! Hard to get context in writing.  :)

Hi Pete, just wondering why you had the tranny tunnel seam sealed. Is it because it's a lap weld that's not fully welded top and bottom rather than a butt weld? I'll be installing my tunnel soon and checking out different ways of doing it. Really enjoying your build, thanks for posting.
Cheers, John

That's why I enjoy this forum. All given and taken in the right spirit.

To get back on topic, fantastic build Pete. Your quality, speed and number of updates puts me to shame!

For the dash top colour we tinted the blue 3 shades darker and added flattening agent.

Hey Pete,
