Missing panel on me new van!

[trevskoda]

I would take a grp mould of that panel, make copies and sell for £50 a go, so easy.

Go on then ....

What a FANTASTICALLY generous offer

Looks like you have your first customer above ...

 

[bartman]

..... Or perhaps make Barnard Castle your next trip

Blokes just turned up and bought my first FB market place item Barry (motorcycle tent). Only went onto FB yesterday afternoon. Well chuffed for the suggestion Ta!

Yep, it does work if you don't mind dealing with the great unwashed.

 

[barryd]

It does seem glaringly obvious now you see it but at the time it didn't. However you can be assured I didn't pay the full asking price. Next you will be telling me I should have looked under the bonnet!

He was a really nice bloke Barry, rode a Harley, a T120 and a Lambretta would you believe. He looked like he had just stepped out of ZZ top.

He was over the moon with the tent (Slumit Cub 2) and after I'd demo'd it he tried to hand over the 70 quid asking price, I said "gimme 60, I planned to get haggled down to that so I'm happy with it".

Had I disliked him he would have paid the asking price. As I said yesterday I hate selling stuff but this was a pleasure.

(wanna buy any Kajagoogoo albums?)

send me the part you want me to copy in grp.

 

[r4dent]

That panel is going to be all new and shiny.

Maybe you need to get the whole van resprayed to match.

 

[mistericeman]

send me the part you want me to copy in grp.

Not a chance ....

Oi! She's mine!

 

[wildebus]

send me the part you want me to copy in grp.

If he had the part to send you, he wouldn't need you to copy the part!

 

[Robmac]

If he had the part to send you, he wouldn't need you to copy the part!

He could send the part from the other side.

One small flaw in that cunning plan though...

 

[trevskoda]

There is a market there for someone, make 2 or 3 a week and flog on ebay, beer money.
Here is a little 535 shetland i rebuilt from a shell for brotherinlaw/outlaw a few years back.

Looks good that Trev.

Same (Identical moulding) part fell off my Swift too, I think it is the only Swift issue i've had with it in 7 years. Mine fell off on Near Side, it's just under the fuel filler cap and I guess diesel spillage loosened the adhesive. I recall it was £45.00 6 yrs ago. Big screw through mounding to the body under the reflector when refitted. AND check together side too.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

Good idea to put a screw in under the reflector, shame Swift didn't at those OTT prices.

 

[trevskoda]

Problem is you lot are self fitting, the job should only be done by a bondoligest.

 

[wildebus]

at £125 I think I would carve one out of wood to get an acceptable shape to make a former and then make a mould (and send to Trev )

 

[yeoblade]

I'd send you a 3D scan of the moulding, but I don't really know what that means! Anyway it's a mirror image of the other side.
