Ok so i bought the van must be almost 2 years ago just as a rolling shell, just looking to get it resprayed, fit a zeemax kit and fit a turbo 1275.. Ahh how things got out of hand How i got it ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So first off i bought some wheels, some camira brakes, new koni adjustables ![]() ![]() Then it went to the panel shop to get the loving touches it needed............ Bodykit ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() New fuel filler ![]() Then to the roof ![]() Rear Lights ![]() New and improved rear lights ![]() ![]() ![]() New front indicators ![]() Filled in side windows ![]() Then the suzuki G13b motor went in ![]() Extended the front ![]() ![]() Then got over the suzuki idea and am taking on the 4efte Suicide doors (still a working progress) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Got the hydraulics ready to go in ![]() ![]() ![]() So there it is thus far.... I think, so many things are happening i cant remember what has been done and what hasnt. There isnt much this van dosnt have Cheers Dan |

Extending the front like that looks like hard yakka ![]() How long did that take? that engine looks familiar... |

Extending the front was more of a drama than it seems.... Because the bonnet is narrower at the front than it is at the rear, just near the front lights had to have a plate welded in, and because i have a bodykit for it the kit also has to be modified to suit the new front.. And it took me all of 5 minutes to tell the beater what i wanted done, as for how long it took him i think nearly all day..... |

Nice gordo! Can't wait to see it all finished. How much rooting around is the change to the camira brakes? |

The change to camira brakes was easy, i bought them already assembled just had to bolt them on.... And with the roof i have a sheet of 12mm thick lexan, and i am going to get a metal one made up. And gaf you are more than welcome to come take a squiz I took some more pics of the door (with out the pocket) and the rear lights.. ![]() ![]() |

I wanted to do that with my van ( in my head ) That was the idea, but i got over that because i do want it finished some time this century. And there is nothin wrong with the way they open now |
