The resurrection of Doc, bringing a 20 year old neismann Bischoff Flair back to life after 12 years off road.

[Lenny HB]

Looking good Tam.

I’m curious about the door that was resprayed; did they remove, and re-apply, the graphics or did they mask them off? If the latter, that must have been tricky.

Ian

Tam masked them.

 

[Captain Yoghurtpot]

Looking proper dapper Northernraider is that van.
Hats off to you Sir on your sterling efforts and hope you have many happy times in her.

Deleted, wrong thread.

I think it might be worth pointing out that not all 2 year-old MHs, and especiallly not N&B ones need so much attentio, which was mainly due to 12 years storage and lack of maintenance.

Out N&M Arto will be 22 years-old in April and all that the bodywork needs is a decal on one side only which has cracks in it but otherwiswe paintwork is fine. Of course like all MHs where bodyparts are of different materials the colour fades differently.

Tbh I wasn’t convinced about painting over the grey Tam but didn’t want to rock the boat. Glad I didn’t say anything…. it’s a big improvement.

Graphics were masked up as it would have looked odd without them and I think getting them replaced exactly would have been difficult. Did a good job of that though I must say. And the colour match on the door is damm near perfect

[mackeellan]

Hi Tam, I'm pleased that the driver door has blended in as it stuck out like a sore thumb. It's a very good looking vehicle now and I look forward to seeing it in person sometime, good luck

I think it's funny and I was 62 on my last birthday ... does that mean I'm getting younger?

I’m 65 and find it funny but think it’s ok on a builder van but not the Flair but it’s yours so put whatever you like on it.

Could be even funnier if a mischievous funsters sees his MH and puts a sticker on the end saying 'up!' Wonder how long it would take Tam to realise it was there!
