Thanks Guys It's been a fairly long process but well worth it. It's nice to know that the van is now 100% back to original condition and colours. Just a few tiny things to finish off including insulation and the rest of the door cards and she'll be complete.

I'll just leave this here...

It's been a while since i updated the thread with my progress, so here goes. I've had the car back for a while now and have been enjoying it thoroughly! It has now gone back in to have the final panel beating done and then it's off to the spray painter. All going well i should have her back...
