One of my larger jobs, the 1967 bay required a rather large amount of metal work, the van has been in the same family since 1967 they bought it at 6 months old, the vehicle has be driven far and wide, as far as Pakistan and back. It had also had a huge amount of temporary repairs on repairs on repairs, from sheet metal being welded on top of the entire cargo floor to a piece of string holding the fuel line on. The van was mot’d and finished just in time for the wedding on the Saturday. On the Monday it took its maiden voyage to Barcelona, there and back 2500 miles and didn’t miss a beat 🙂
