My trophy from Pratical classics arrived last week

Coloured coded the vw symbol on one hub cap, can't make my mind up whether i like it enough to do the others. It does match the redwalls well but at the same time i love the all chrome look of them bare...... what do you reckon?

Nice touch, colour coded all the way!

Looks good Ant i done this to mine and thought it looked sweet , then decided not to wear hubcaps as it looks tuffer on a Panel van - without IMO 8)

The logo looks cool painted, but the shade of red is a little bit too bright imho. :wink:

That last pic rocks! 8)

Spoke to creative this morning and the roof rack should be here for fri........ so a quick build and it should be on for camperjam.

leon fancy giving me a hand to build it up?

 

[leon]

Would love to. I'm only available after 7pm mind!
Kids are off school friday, so i'm having to do some work :lol:
Doesn't look like i'll be able to make the show either, pressure's on to finish decorating before the wedding May pop down just for the sunday, i'll see how it goes.
Wish i'd bought a rot free house, as well as a rot free van.

bugger ..... i think we will be going on friday evening. So hopefully i'll have the rack built and on for tea time friday,

If you can out for an hour on fri afternoon, if it shows up i will be mostly sat on the drive surrounded by stainless steel with a confused look on my face.

westy rack showed up friday lunchtime so it was a quick build before we left to go weston park

It took about three hours to build, only prob really was i had to widen some of the predrilled holes on the wood as they would line up with the bows, to be expected when your working with lots of fine measurments with wood in the summer.

had some nice comments this weekend about it, sets old frank off well
