HI All,

I am currently treating my van to a tidy up and respray and new wheels. The van is currrently black and although it would be easier to keep it black and have silver wheels I am considering doing a colour change. Most of the prep work is now done so I need to make my mind up pretty quickly. Its being resprayed by Paint Fx in Kettering by Tim and I know he will do a great job for me no matter which way I decide to go.

One of the reasons why I am considering the colour change is that my garage is opposite a funeral directors and a Lady asked me for a quote on a coffin the other day when I was getting out of the van!

Here are some pics of the work in progress and the rather unusual staggered 8.5 x 18 wheels.

Your comments are very much welcomed

I made an executive decision earlier................ Its going to be BLACK again with Kawasaki green wheels to stop the coffin enquiries. It will be a storming job so I guess the colour becomes insignificant so long as I differentiate from the funeral parlour guys!
