TheSlamtop heres a few pictures of my hightop panel van, a work in progress. 4 inch narrowed king and link beam Adj spring plates Slam shocks & front tyres. Fitted solid doors with opening 1/4, rear bumper & front arches Rebuilt engine Paint: Olive drab, pearl white. When I first bought it: Sanding down, took ages! At T2D: Sprayed in aerosol primer (on a budget) Where I am now:
Cheers everyone Future plans are to paint the roof and bumpers and eventually restore the body as well. The front panel is pretty bad and theres a few little battle scars that need go! The body resto probably won't happen for a while. I have fitted a R&R bed/seat and rear belts but need foam!! I am using it as a daily at the moment, it's useful for me as a painter & decorator but I have got plans for a camping interior. But for now I just wanna get to some shows this year. I'm going to wind the suspension as low as possible and do the roof and bumpers, money permitting.
very nice O0 O0 you can't beat a nice ice crea-m van hi top, they really are the nuts and have soooo much room in them. Had one myself about 10ish years ago, now in the scrapyard in the sky It wasn't lowered or cool in any single way but got me around europe
Thanks for posting a pic of your hightop Matt. It's hard to find pictures of these, also nice to see how others are kitted out inside. What happened to the bus?? Was it rust? It looks quite tidy in the picture
Slamtop dude Ive a bullbar that im not going to use now that would look awesome on your hightop £30 plus postage if your interested?
Hi Paradox, thanks, im very interested! Im just going to have a think about it as I did want to fit fog/spot lights and looking at that bar I dont think I will be able to. But it would look good. I was looking at Aussie roo bars before... Ill get back to you asap. Cheers
nice work there buddy! have to admit though...... i loved it on the before pictures more that graffiti is awesome!
I have a pair of spot lamps aswell i was going to mount them to the top of the bull bar I was going to have the number plate hanging on two bits of old chain from below the bull bar
That did look amazing when you got it but I can see why you are changing it :-[.I've not seen any interiors of these so would like to see Matt's , or anyone else's pictures too
