Hello all,
I picked up 'Rusty', our 1971 converted panel van in about July and I've been meaning to get on here to meet like minded people.
Basically I needed something to do as I've gone from being an Engineer in overalls to an Engineer in a suit and the plan was to do a slow and steady restoration. Unfortunately the completely rotten guttering put a stop to that so everything is on hold until I can afford to get the roof fixed!
We've been out for a weekend in her once but without any insulation and in September, my 10 month old son didn't do so well with the cold so we only lasted one night!
Anyway, enough rambling, here's some photos for you, if anybody knows of this van and any history, good or bad, please let me know as I currently don't know anything about her:
Not sure about the flowers but I took one off inside and it ripped the paint off with it...
This steering wheel is going as it's crazy hard to steer!
And a couple of the rusty guttering for you..
Hope you enjoy the pictures
