Where can the spare wheel go?

LPG is definitely a great purchase, but the only place for the tank takes the spare wheel bay under the back of the transporter... So, for 2 months the spare wheel has entertained me no end with it's passive company inside the van. Every movement or door opening or guided tour has involved first moving the really quite dirty steel chappie. So, it had to be evicted.

The logical place is on the rear of the van, replacing the bike rack. We're unlikely to want use of the bike rack, so some sort of replacement construction to hold the wheel is what's needed.

Cue genius and skilled contacts who know about this sort of thing and following some cold and frosty days of fabrication, drilling, welding, grinding and painting we have a rather great addition to the van. The wheel has been evicted and the whole internal experience is massively improved. Thank you Richard.
