My new old wheels

Post by pab »

Some people would have seen this on Facebook, both for those who haven't, I've been restoring my van for the last 9 months or so. there's still a few things to do, but yesterday was the day I picked it up fom the trimmer and brought it home. I'll setup a photo shoot after new year when the last few bits are on and it's had it's final buff (these are very average phone shots in low light), but I thought you might like to see how it turned out.

What about on a trailer?
Some play it safe on the merry-go-round, others go for the thrills of the roller-coaster.

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

Yeah, trailer will probably be the go next season, the 1800 doesn't tow all that well, but as long as I'm not in a hurry it'll be fine.
