Thanx Mark,
Whilst my poor Brothers do all the hard shitty work, i had fun making new decor on the inside,all recycled stuff or opps shop stuff for inside,bar the black carpet walls any way,that was most expensive part of interior i guess and got cheap at kmart the carpet!Now, enough of me...

do it today there might not be a tomorrow

Im the same Mark...5yrs is a long time for Beddys & me..I wanted the  fibre glassing,if steve had his way he would strip the whole van back to metal and start again,like he restores hiis vinatge motorbikes,like a show peice, me..i want a van i dont care if it gets scratch,just a good motor,gearbox n breaks is all that matters to me,7months in the garage is enough for me,95%finished now,and i just want to hit the hwy to hell.
Wayne my other brothers a A class welder, he can do the proper job later,wn i fall off in 5yrs,fine by me,lol,...Im over it..i want to have some bloody adventure in this thing..its all safe,so thats all that matters to me,i want to hit cruise OZ b4 i die,lol!

OK, googled the Diff..
Steve said its a general purpose resin and doesnt actually say on the tin,epoxy or other.
If gutters it last five years or a year then that better than getting all wet without anything!
The day we bought it and evvverything fell off as we drove it home from Qld to Vic,lol,everything we touched broke..anything will beat what we had!
Thanx boys for yr concerns,Ruv u rong tiiime! ;D
