Hi all, i have just unanswerable question,i have a 1984 R4F6, part restored part in bits.the interesting bits: ive replaced both wings.inner/outer welded other bits and its body is super sweet
(apart from the bonnett and drivers door)
the best bit is ive replaced the floor from bulkhead to behind the seats and worked on the skills and they're sweet as . i need a front screen and rear light lenses. the thing is i can no way afford a paint job,and although it breaks my hart i think it should go to someone fitter than me.
just a ball park,as ive no idea
Yours Doug

Hello Doug
It'd be great to see some photos of your van.
Just one thing, though - the F6 windscreen and rear lights are different (unique to the F6).


F6 rear light cluster:

Does your van look like this? Is so it is an F4 not an F6. Windscreen is the same as the Renault 4 not the F6. Tail lights are unique to the F4.

As for a guidance price on selling a R4 F6 here is an advert in a garage just around the corner where I live and it is a beautiful F6
