yeah love the dragon mural, would love a van with some serious good murals,
im going to do similar to the doors but cut along the bottom line and box the step in.
and put lids on both sides for batteries or break down tools and spares

yeah the tail lights look horrible,
i like recessed lights.
1 of the pictures ian showed me today blew me out of a custom backend with a top half rear door
and a full piece from left side to right side tail light (comaro) i think he said. 
picture is from the 1980,s ,
not sure what became of this van.
i will get together with him soon and find out some good custom beddy history i hope.

i may as well put the other pictures from today here as well.
1st picture is Ians missus (Leoni) making the first mould of the VK Front.
im trying to spur Ian into wanting to do more custom stuff, but he,s been F#%&ed over by so many people over the years it might take some doing.
i might try and find a LWB Bedford van to buy n give to him and help him do it up at my place.
be nice to help the old fellow out n give him some faith in the human race again.

2nd picture is the very first fitup of the VK Front
3rd picture side view VK Front

Yep, don't do it any more either, a lot of work making a new mould to have someone just copy it, all my window recesses, sun visor, flairs and door panels etc, will be keeping to myself  - one off units... ;)


New recess plug  just about finished,
