I've had the van for 5 months but only just got around to getting the company name on it.
I think the blokes done a pretty good job.

looks good, what did that cost ?

Cheers Tony and Mick. It cost me Â£250. Got a board that needs fixing to the tailgate too.
I have spent a lot more with the man this week though.
I've also got business cards, clothes, stationary, plaques to leave on jobs and flyers on order.
5th of Aprils coming:)

It'll win you more work than you realise Michael. When you turn up at a potential clients house one of the first things they will see is your van.
Turn up in anew old banger your less likely to be taken seriously. A presentable sign written van will always help win work.

Looks great but sort those wheels out! Scabby old steel wheels let the truck down. Pot of paint and a wire brush plus an hour, sorted!:)

I might stick my old silver sparkle 11 spokes on it Dave now I have black TD pro race on my MG.

In all seriousness They were freshly painted when I got the truck 5 months ago But I agree that they do need sorting.

I bought plastic covers for my rims a couple of years ago but what ever spray stuff they use at the hand car wash takes the paint off the plastic

Looks Great.

Have you taken the rear seats out and use it for Tool storage?

Could you post pics of the inside please, as am thinking of converting one of mine and need ideas.
