Priscilla under way

Work starts on Priscilla

At last, after being let down by 2 Welders and 1 Upholsterer work has finally started on the bodywork of Priscilla. If you don't know what Priscilla is she is my 40 year old Mark 1 Bedford CF Camper van . I have had her for about 16 months .

Last week saw the start of the exterior thanks to Mr Craig Whittle . The damage done by the "tin worms " is systematically being cut out and replaced with new metal. Which leaves me with the job of renovating , re-building the cabinetry and beds along with all the re-upholstery. I guess I am going to have to learn a load of new skills.

This is her has she arrived to me in July of 2015
