    Feels a bit like that, but nothing that can’t be fixed so far! No real deadlines but would like to make it habitable by the summer ☀️

      He has, it's where I got the idea for mine. His looks more oem, think it's a good plus his.

        A bit more progress over the last few weekends!



        Floor cleaned, rust treated and painted



        New door strikers trial fitted, the old ones were rusted out. Had to use a stud extractor to get the old screws out! I’ll wire brush underneath next and repaint.



        Door cards removed and stripped, started to paint the grab handles first. After a rough up, a coat of adhesion promoter, two coats of high build plastic primer, then a few coats of Matt white plastikote. Looking better already!

          Cab starting to look better! I removed the rubber mat and gave it a jet wash and a good scrub. Managed to get most of the dirt out but a couple of rust stains remain. Pretty happy though.



          New carpet in, looking good!



          Finally the dash trim in followed by a final cleanup of the dash, using autoglym trim gel.



          The drivers seat is being repaired at the moment, so when that is back I’ll finish spraying the seat bases and the door cards ready for refitting.

            That factory rubber matt looks like new mate. Just don't do what I did and put trim shine on it I was skidding around for weeks on it till Molly swilled it with warm soapy water.

              Sounds like a job for cherry blossom!

                      Today’s success was a reversing camera, courtesy of ebay!



                      Managed to route the wire in through the back of the number plate light.



                      Still get a little “eyebrow” on the screen from the number plate pelmet but happy with the result!

                          This one:

                          VW T4 Transporter Caravelle Fitted Floor Mat in Black https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F173113843302

                          Quality is good, even has a heel pad! Just covers one bolt for the passenger seat so will need to make a hole for that.
