New look!

[TissyD]

As our beloved "Nellie" will be 23 years old next month, we decided to give her a nice new coat to wear whilst travelling around.

Wow! Nellie looks amazing in her new coat

 

[Tezza33]

It looks fantastic, well done,

 

[Wully]

Wow what a difference that looks great took years of it a nice set of white hubcaps to finish it off maybe ?

What an impressive job. It looks like a new motorhome. I hope my wife doesn’t see it or she will be wanting ours done too!!

Got the hubcaps ready, chrome ones. Just got to fit extensions on the valves.

I bought chrome covers for our wheels recently, but was going to send them back because prior to your post I didn't know about valve extensions.

Where did you get your valve extensions?

I have removed the photo links as it looks like the attachments have been deleted.

 

[Forresbroons]

Didn't work for me either and that was before Phil removed them

They worked at the beginning, it really did transform the van and it is a shame nobody else can see the pictures, I think the chrome wheel trims were on it in the 'before' pics

Would have liked to have seen the pictures Terry but maybe they’ll post again if possible for others to see

The old wheel trims were grey plastic. May have been shiny many years ago.

I will put the pics up again when I get a minute.

Pics back up now.

Thanks for the link; I've just ordered two sets as well.

I loved the photos of your motorhome (before they disappeared!), and if I'm not being too nosey, I would be very interested if you could share more detail on how you actually completed the spectacular transformation. Would that be possible?

The respray was done by a firm in Hull who normally deal with agricutural machinary. They wanted to branch out a bit and gave me a good price for letting them use the pictures for advertising
