Hi, a friend of me has a 1967 pannel.
I've restored this pannelvan 5 years ago and it was still in showroom condition till now! :cry:
A SMART drove into the pannel and so the bus got a lot of dammage!.:cry:
First it has been hit at the rear left side.
Then the SMART turned around and hit also the drivers side door, dogleg (can be repaired) and front bumper.
Also the 4 wheels has been damaged (lucky me, I didn't like them)!:twisted:
Please can you help me with parts!
What we need is:
NOS left corner.
NOS left inner tray.
NOS rear and front bumper.
NOS Left door
NOS bumper brackets (front and rear)
NOS left splashpan.
Thanks for your help!  Afbeelding 030.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 033.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 034.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 035.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 033.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Does someone know who is making the same battery tray as the one on the picture?
Or give me the names of the manufacturers in UK.
I guess it was Creative engeneering but I'm not sure...
Thanks!
We have to cut this part out becouse we will try to safe the corner if possible......
I know, a shame becouse there was no rust on the tray or on the corner....

Hi There,

Nice repair boys,

Why did you feel the need to prime so much of the side panel?

Looked like it could have been primed much more locally.

Once again, nice repair.

Regards,
Stuart.

Parts are painted!
The dor has been repaired becouse we couldn't find a NOS one and the door was repairable and there was absolute no rust...
There was only some paintchips on the engine lid, becouse the corner scratched to it.  Afbeelding 071.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.

Body is painted with Glasurit L87 pastelwhite.
Right dogleg has been repainted too becouse of some paintchips and the bumperholder was a little deformed.
Tomorrow we get the NOS mediablasted bumpers back!
Only one day working this year, yahoooooooooooooo! :lol:  Afbeelding 079.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.  Afbeelding 080.jpg You have insufficient rights to see the content.
