There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Awesome stuff..inspiring..... 

me thinks though with the amount of work put into it

might have been easier to graft an EH body on to a Lexus chassis...

thanks for the pics

haha Dano, i've definately been putting in the hours, I've had 3 days off in the last 2 and a half months, every other day has been spent working on the Bedford with my Grandad, if it weren't for him it just wouldn't happen.

I think he started off with a better body.. and a much higher budget.. haha
but my van is coming along, its just a shame all this work is being done to make it look the same :(

I have plenty of things to do to the interior when i finally finish the exterior..

IOU all: an introduction thread with plenty of pictures (maybe even some of the horror photos).. i'll do it when it's all done..



Until then, enjoy this EH
