Roof respray

The wind finally dropped enough so I could prime and respray the roof. At the same time I fibre Glassed a section to allow a 400x400 skylight to be fitted. Got a few runs in just the front that need to be rubbed out, but on the whole it came out alright. It's starting to look pretty good and less of a Jadder mobile.

Wheel Refurb

I thought it was time to put the original wheels back on. I had been using the ones from the LT28 we scrapped and the tyres were smaller. I had the tyres taken off so I could clean them up and respray them in VW Alpine white.

I then ordered some pretty good tyres from the net and had them fitted.
Next job was to drill and tap to allow clips to be fitted. This meant I could fit some chrome hub caps.

Waste watewr tank

We started to find the sort waste tank on wheels you use for a caravan a bit of a pain, especially when it came to stealth camping as it made it a bit obvious. I've now added a 50l waste tank under the van.
I even got to use my set of taps and dies for the first time. Due to lack of long stainless bolts I had to drill and tap holes in to the chassis to accept the bolts.

Trip to the New Forest

Tried out a few of the cycle tracks, excellent apart from 2 punctures.
