Hello Folks Bit the bullet today and after reading all the Fix it club repairs,i decided to attackl the front panel damp we've got.

So i took out the gubins inside now exposed the battens and the Rot !

Look's as though all vans follow the same trend regarding; build

what i can't see is how the front shelf comes out most of the decayed wood is down to the window seals by the look of it,i did think it was the rail that carrys the vwindows as a screw was unwound and i thought that was the answer but wrong again i think ?

can anyone shed any light please oh its a 1999 swift conqueror many thanks Kevin

I have heard that the front shelf is sometimes fixed with screws that are under the outside skin / front panel .
They can be a pain to remove , although i haven't had to take one out best i can come up with is to use a hacksaw blade and slide it between the shelf and wallboard and cut thro the screws .
