thanks mandy should have asked him straight off been cleaning glass from 4 splits
for a week now trying to pick the best but all are over 30 yr's old & not good.
by the by what are you putting on in the back floor, we are useing grey carpet
with black specks which should blend in with the white & turkis colours nicely.

Are you going Safaris or standard front windows coz i must have my original window glass around somewhere but like you its probably really old & might be best trying to get new stuff.
As for the floor in the back,i haven't decided 100% yet but i think i'm leaning towards the black/white chequered vinyl flooring.I think it would probably look great with the purple & white.That carpet sounds cool for yours.How long till yours will be on the road do ya think????
I took my canvas in tonight to get redone for the poptop & the lady was really cool,so hopefully i'll have a new groovy canvas in the next week & a half........i just want to drive her soooooo bad,especially when its a beautiful hot night like it is down here tonight,it would be great to open the safaris,pop on some tunes & go for a cruise.hopefully not to much longer to wait.👍

How bad am i Graham,your bday pressie parcel has been sitting here for weeks now ready to post & i still haven't sent it.!!To much overtime trying to make $$$$$$$ for my splitty!!!I will get around to posting it very soon,i promise!:kiss
Yeah it will be having a bit of a camper fit out in the back Robnjo but that will have to come after shes regoed hopefully next week.My main priority is to get her on the road.No more updated pics at this stage but hopefully there willl be lots in the next week if we get her finished(so to speak)in time for DOVW.When i say finished she'll have front seats but nothing in the back as yet.:thumb

Congrats Mandie, looks to me like all the waiting was well worth it.The upholstery is a perfect match. I reckon you are going to cramps in your cheek bones from all the smiling. You will also get bugs in your teeth driving with the safaris open!
