Your businesses and what you do!..

[FormerSmurf]

I'm a fairly boring chap.

By day, I design wireless networks, whether it be WLAN, Point to Point, or Point to Multi-Point, RF or laser.

By night, I am the Troop Commander of the local Army Cadet Force Detachment.

Formersmurf, the cadet thing sure sounds interesting though!
Trenches and Tracks: not really that close, living in the middle of Belgium, halfway on the line between Brussels and Liège.

Hi ,
some not all we do press some panel's using aluminum dies, only good for between 35<>50 panels, we can do panels up to 2400mm long by 1000mm wide depending on how complex. We do sill panels & flat corrugated panels as used on Citroen Acadiane , AK & HY vans Etc

I do have a set of wooden formers for T2, 4 door sills in one section, I suppose I could make some if there is enough interest

re: sill panels

Hi Rick,
I will look at the unit price tomorrow for 10pr . from a unit cost point of view if you can round up other member & get 20 pr it would be more cost effective the tooling material cost is obviously lower nearer to the tooling wear limit.
The sill's are correct profile but sans doorsteps, 13mm flange to top edge, if i remember correctly that was OK on the couple of trucks i did but it's a while ago now & I'm at the age of senior moments these days.
Do you think there is any requirement for any other repair sections / panels ??

regards Adrian

never thought somewhere I have drawings for compression rod mount repair pieces (proper cup in MS with a stepped rear flange to mount into frame Brkt hole) used them on mine about 4 yrs ago & still perfect even with orange polybushes

OK price it on 20, Rick

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

There will be a market for front wings of all models, used ones are starting to sell for silly money now and as far as I know even the grp ones are getting a little hard to find. If it is something that is feasible for you to do then I don't think you will have a problem shifting them.

Think you are hoping! Rick
