Yep checked block casting number, its actually better than it looks in the photos - scabby but not rotted through apart from on the back door bottoms. I'll post some better photos when I've got it in the drive and given it a good compounding. Its still got the SVO plate in place. Anybody got any tips for panelling the windows off neatly?

our recipe consisted of lumps of Mk5 careful spot welding and filler (Kim the Mk1 camper reversion). Dont throw an actor against the side door though as the plate might crack.....
SVO might be rubber wheel arches.

Great stuff, yes rubber arches are SVO, personally I dont like 'em but metal ones swap straight in

I thought the SVO might have been for the tacho, its also got no internal door locks fitted other than on the drivers door, will find some suitable sheets of steel for the windows.
Any work for a scabby minibus before I turn it into a slightly less scabby van Fred?
