55 bush find panel

Post by kombi niko »

Hay guys here's a few pics of the 55 panel van my mate Josh got last year, i've taken over the build as he doesn't have time to get it back on the road. Will be staying patina all going to plan.
Waiting on floors and front sections before I can continue.
You can watch the bush pick up below.
