Hey scott you could have made the van look shiny in photoshop, My 11 & 12 yr old girls rubbed it back & under coated it on a windy august day, before I blew some free acrylic over it to make it one colour for the great ocean rd-ceduna trip, I'd run out of time as I bought it with the front written off, & in 3 colours.
The girls tryed to buff it up, but I had to fix all the rub throughs after they went out.

Trev,
Nice fleet you have there. It seems that folks that like Morries end up owning a few of them.
Scott, I would KILL to have your van. I know you say it's rusty and all, but that thing is too cool. A lowlight ANYTHING here is exceedingly rare, but that van is unobtainium...
