Ugly Borat gradually Morphing into a Hemsworth

[Sunnyjim]

Like many of you I had documented much of Borats journey but like the wallabies i have lost most.

I will pick out the photos I have that shows all his progress

This T3 can carry lots of stuff. Am i annoyed my wife zooms past  me on hills on her electric  bike? Who else thinks it is cheating?

Here is Borat sporting some new shoes
Vw tiguan 16 inch alloys

Poor old borat didnt have a complete interior. It was an old  waterlogged Trakka camper.
So i have been completing 1 by 1 3mm ply panels. I then varnish them all to protect against moisture. 

I found the original black plastic push tabs that came with the T3. I now can easy pop the panels off if need be.
Once i am happy with it  all the panels on goes the funky retro beach stripe vinyl.

What do you think of the vinyl?
I know some people have said the varnished ply looks good as it is right now

I like the vinyl - show us some photos when you have one finished.

Is the vinyl for a pull out awning?

[Oldman]

It’s for the door cards Grant ….
I like it !….  looks period correct and different to anything I’ve seen on doorcards before 

[Sunnyjim]

Yes i will post some pics when the vinyl is done.  I now have to remove the RNR bed to remove the 2 rear panels to do.

Here is one of my favourite  upgrades. From campervan vulture make a nice bracket mount for gauges near the Pillar. 
For me this is much better viewing than the traditional  cut a hole in the dash.

Paul,

Love the funky stripe for the door cards.

Always liked this van and all its mods - a VW is never finished!

Ahhh...you have the Land Rover mirrors as well 

I have painted ply in the back of my T3.
Very similar to what Caravelle C's had.
If I mark it after I have gone camping or to the tip, I can give it a whack of paint and it is new again
