Hi to all dsk members, just making myself known,i recently took on the challenge of restoring a very rusty 1956 split panel van. Having just finished restoring my 1973 mini clubman . Im privalaged to be a member of this site, it feels like a massive family. i will post some pics soon, and will be reading up as much as i can on how to restore the bus. My first mission i think is to remove the roof, as all the supports and gutters have blown away in the wind. Looking forward to vella beach for some ideas. I live on the sunshine coast qld and would very much like to attend a few meets to check out your buses. Thanks to everyone on dsk for all the information avalible to me now and the hours i have spent looking at resto pics.
Most kind regards
Dexter
