davenewellhome Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 trikershaun - 2009-04-05 3:52 PM how much did that paint cost you. looks good Thanks Shaun, from memory about £200 for the paint, thinners and hardener. Putting it on myself so no labour costs (lol) . The only worrying thing is the inside is still bare and we roll for the Peterborough show in two and a half weeks in this 'van which currently doesn't even have an MOT :-S :-S . Got to get my finger out I reckon :-D . D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenewellhome Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Well done Shaun, the bus is looking good, all credit to you mate. Just as an update to my last post on this thread, we did get it done to a usable point in time for Peterborough way back in April although we had no washroom and the bog was flushed with a jug :-S, but we got an MOT and after some hassle with DVLA we got it taxed in the correct category (PHGV) . Since then we have done quite a lot, like finishing the kitchen cupboards, fitting and plumbing the sink, building the wee room walls etc. I'm currently installing a Propex space heater, only got the gas feed left to do but next Saturday we roll for mid wales for a brief escape and its likely to be cold (ish), wish me luck.
