Hello Classic Car Forum,

I have just registered for the forum and have recently imported a vintage Peugeot D4B van for minimalistic restoration hopefully!

Can anyone recommend a UK parts specialist for these or similar vehicles ?

Heres a pic

Thanks ~ great forum ~ Steve

Hi Rick,

Yes its almost totally solid, there is some welding to do in the load area.

I plan to get it running, MOT'd and on the road looking as it does still in it's original paint!

I made the mistake of over restoring my last project ~ so much so that I was too scared to use it... so I sold it....
(VW Split Screen Camper 1967)

[size=7]Could you explain how you managed to get that photo to show in the post, all I managed was that link!!

(pm me if you prefer ~ couldn't find anything in FAQ)

I clicked your link, to the right of the photo is a list of links including one for image (IMG) code, I just clicked it (to take a copy) then pasted it into my message.

Nice to hear that the van will remain in its original paint Smile
