I Wish I Had

The french have managed to produce some stylish vans in there time (yeh right)

But this 1958 beauty went for £1500 an I loves it! Did bid but bottled it as I new I'd not have the cash to finish it and i'm gutted.

Bamboo Side Bars Become a Reality

Two centre bits will do fine for the side bars on my van I reckon!!

Thinking of utilising one of the larger bits as a bumper with indicators but for once I need to actually do what i think not change my mind and get left with 5 bits of expensive bamboo.

Like the 6 smaller bits i bought and did nothing with i feel some mobile tiki camping furniture comming off?

Thanks Rob for getting it and the advice on the resto of the bar now if i can convince him to take a look and just show me how to do a little bit?

More Tikimons hopefully next week

Just heard from the supplier who does Tikimon here in the UK will get my long awaited order Monday as i traded all my tikimon I had bar two. I'm taking them to BvF see what I can get for them!!

BvF a GoGo

Me in the middle with a hangover hence the kettle - Steve on the left and Martyn on the right - prior to judging the custom class at BvF

Two pics of my first attempt at a tiki surf bus not to radical i thought but it was for some and I lost a few thousand pounds on it when i sold it. But it was real fun doing it I learnt alot!!!

Off to BvF again friday to judge the custom class again looking forward to it!
