** Lee's Barn ** Current status 'OPERATION PIKEY VAN'

Paint day :)

Got up to Dans at about 6 ish on Friday. Got back a few hours ago after having only 10 mins sleep in the pass seat of the widearch lol

Before I post pics, a massive thankyou to Dan, not only for the fantastic job he's done, but also for still giving up half of his bank hols when he has so much other stuff going on (Sorry Ali if you're reading this, i owe you a box of chocs :))

Tommorow it should be 90% there. We're going to put it back together, and then in the afternoon i intend to have the wheels on it!

will look good when its all done :thumb:

yay, second almost successful spray job done :d , Tbh i thought i had set the gaunlet abit tight, esp as we had a few hours down time. BUT we bloody well did it lol, driven in, basic strip/scotched and painted in 17 hrs (with me catching a few winks cos i'm not fussy and can sleep on a concrete floor when needed lol lol ). This is no great feat in many eyes, but for two people who dont really have much of a clue, with basic tools, it was a good feeling lol :thumb:

Nice one.

Lee youve been officially "pie'ed"
In an xzibit style

Sorry i ment "pimped"

Good work:). IMO its a must to turn upto work in tidy clean and smart looking van. Its generally a pretty accurate way to instantly assess what kind of work will be done by its occupants. The exception to this rule are a few of the gypo vans which can be brand new minters. In that circumstance all you need to do is look at the occupants and ask them if they "loike dags"lol

Is there going to be a bit of subtle signage? My bro has got some magnetic signage he can take off.
