Very clean! But how is your Roof pod? I didn't know British Gas ones were Turbo either. I had heard Royal Mail had turbo's fitted.
BTW, you'll want to get those back windows blacked and or protected if you are going to have much gear in there. Otherwise some little badger will have it away with everything.

Tinted windows are on my list next. doing them tomorrow actually. £8.50 from screwfix for window tint for vans with cutting knife and plastic smoothing tool.
New number plates on way too, my roof cab is rusty as hell, but my mum's fella also does bodywork so is painting it in the BG blue for free.
So far this van stands me at some buffing heads, 3 stage meguires kit and british gas blue touch up for £6.50 mixed from halfords so around £37 quid.

Coming along mighty fine boyz.
I have a Corsa pickup and get stopped all the time because everyone thinks that it is 2 corsa'a joined!

check it out: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/374616

I may just have a 2 piece rear apron that will fit onto the rear of a combo.
I imported it from South Africa for my corsa, but never got round to fitting it and prob never will.

thanks

Never knew they made a pick up. Any pics of this rear apron sounds interesting.

The thought had crossed my mind, mine is staying standard though, maybe some wheels only because i have some nearly new 16" toyo's in the cellar. its meant to be a workhorse though.
Look forward to seeing this project progress though
