My 11 build

Anyone know which model van is needed to collect the kit from the factory?

[Westfield 129]

I used a trailer, and a big American pickup.

The kit was in a Westfield 11 sized crate.

LWB Transit should do it. Best to check with the factory.

I recently collected Splat’s old rear from a paint shop an hour up the road. It fits, placed laterally and inverted, in the back of my Skoda estate! Who’d have thought it!

Just to clarify; my rear end is neither old, nor in need of paint. Nor has it ever been upside down in the back of a truckie’s car.

How very dare you

I thought you'd like to see my new wheels......

Picked the kit up this morning.

Looking great!

Is that polished gel-coat? Very nice finish!!

[zei220]

Yes, that's the polished body option from the factory.

First job completed...... Changed the suspension bushes to the Polyflex bushes.

A productive afternoon in the garage...
