I did the front end today. as of today I have $1,700.00 in it in parts and over 200 hrs. and about $2,000.00 of donated items for the van. Paint, Kenwood stereo System, wood for the inside, new seats, and a few other items..

I just got some nice metal sheet to use for surfaces on a table, an ash/cup tray and some areas. This sheet is the same used for poker game tables you see in casinos. Very nice feel! A friend sold me the remaining pieces - enough for my van.

I'm going up north next week with the van to have the inside sprayed with foam insulation. then off to paint. the last thing to do is the inside. however i do have all items for that project and my buddy is doing all the wood work. and his wife is doing all the fofo lol...
