I won a new old stock petrol tank on eBay this week, so I will get this painted a fitted soon, just need some of the fancy clips and screws.

Also got my rear subframe up and into place. And connected up all the brake pipes

I don't know yet but I'm sure I'll bring it along to some shows next year.

We have wheels! Not the proper ones but wheels none the less.

With it having an mpi bulkhead it means I can fit the protector for the fuel pipes

Yeah, that sounds cool :)

My bits and bobs for fitting my petrol tank turned up so I got the tank and fuel lines all fitted the other day

I got the signwriting done on the van today, im really pleased with it , I didn't want anything too over the top. He made it look really easy but I'm sure it isn't!
