Hello, these are my main objectives
Change all the bolts and metal bits I can to stainless steel
Change the tent for a new one
Clean the fuzzy roof
Clean the fiberglass top and use some repair solution to make it look nice again
Try and clean the rusty marks on the inside and out.
New seals on everything
Take of luggage rack and clean underneath
Gas strut

I've watched many videos but I'm still struggling to find the exact items I need in the UK/EU
Main things I need that cant find
What bolts I need exactly and where to buy as there's so many different types
Best tents with delivery UK
What solution to use to the Refurb the fiberglass
How to clean the rust marks from the inside and outside of the roof
Exactly all the seals needed , I believe 4 types is this correct
What gas struts are easiest to apply and would it matter if I use a heavy duty one in hopes of putting solar panels and maybe kayak in future ? Would it be too hard without weight.

Thanks for reading , if you have any questions or need pictures let me know.

There are some topics in the faq section on this to help.

Since you are in Great Britain I’d reach out to Campervan Culture for help.
