Well done mate. If I was you I'd never take it out unless it had been dry for a day and no rain forecast for a week :lol: . It's a truly beautiful van. Jealousy is an understatement!

Congrats, after looking over this in the flesh today I must say a lot of money, blood sweat and tears have definitely gone into this creation. It's a stunning vehicle and really deserved the trophy, keep the changes and developments coming over winter and I am sure you will win a few more trophies.

Cheers guys. I'm in a bit of shock as only collected the van from Dooka and Reflex on fri after 5 weeks of work on it and then to win an award is not something I ever imagined I would manage.

Even the Police took an interest!

It was popular and ended up talking to a lot of people. Can anyone spot I.D.S?!

Well done Dan, it sure got a lot of attention going by the photos on the net.
Well deserved trophy, I'm just sorry I didn't get down to have a look around it.

Truly amazing

Nice to say that I worked on your van, even though it was a small part in a big project

You were the first Ed!

Where have you seen the photos Doc? Can you cross post them to here if you get a chance.

I had a good look round it today Dan and it looked spot on, the paint finish is flawless, I fact all the cars painted by reflex were 8)

Good work Dan and congrats on the award :D
I have to agree that the show was judged on more of a stance theme as I have worked on both vans and they have very different qualities.
Not bad for your first show ;) Now get to work on the inside :D

Thanks Matt. I left the flyers on the windscreen and quite a few got taken. The display board was popular too and I'm sure I saw people checking there phones for the companies involved.

Inside is definitely the next step in the Caddy R's evolution. Watch this space.........................................................
