Mk4 combi van resto
Bought this van in January with the intention of tidying it up a bit and just using it as my daily 😂. We all know that never happens so it's now undergoing a full resto here are a few pictures of when I bought it

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
This is going to be so awesome, always loved these - I had a mk4 van (with a one piece door) 20 years ago.
I'll be at knockhill on the 30th too so hope to see it then

So it's been a busy few days with the van I have started to restore the underside. I striped everything off the back and stripped the old stone chip off ready for a few coats of fresh black stone chip before fitting the powdercoated and poly bushed parts. Here's a few of how it's looking so far
