It’s BROWN! We Unveil The New Look on Our 70s Bedford Truck Cab / Do You Like it?

Описание: #19 - This week we are delighted to finally be unveiling the finished, fully restored cab on our Bedford MK Truck as we complete the final stages of the paint job with the application of some seriously shiny brown paint, and she is looking fantastic.

For more information on the paint we used, check out last week's video here and the first part of the top coat application ...    • It’s Gonna Look SO Good! Spray Painting Th...  

We used Advanced Paints for our top coat, and we are happy to recommend based on our experience of the paint and the helpful service we received. You can find them here ...

The paint we used is called Closterman Coatings and it is a 2-Pack (2K) direct to gloss paint system. We also used a Devilbiss FLG5 Spray Gun to apply the top coat.

This channel is the story of us, Tim & Lisa, and our attempt to build the World's Greatest Adventure Mobile on the World's Smallest Budget ...

We are 2 'old enough to know better' artists from Cornwall in the UK, and together we are building an off-grid home on wheels from the remains of a 1975 Bedford Firetruck.

We bought the truck on eBay at the end of 2020 and had it delivered by an even bigger truck to a huge, old barn-on-a-farm we are renting to use as our workshop whilst we undertake this challenge.

It’s not the first time we’ve attempted something as daft as this … We once spent several years restoring and converting a 50 year old fishing trawler into a houseboat, so when we set out on this latest adventure, we told ourselves it would be a breeze …

Well, several months and a few set backs later, we’re currently in the process of ‘lovingly’ restoring the base vehicle, taking the whole thing apart, piece by rusty piece, so we can make it all new and shiny again, before we embark on the even bigger task of building a home on its back out of nothing more than grit, imagination, sweat, tears and possibly a bit of magic and wishful thinking!

Oh, and tea!

Subscribe to the channel and join us in our workshop and we promise it will be nothing if not value for money … it’s free, you see?
