Well we had a great show turn out and i got to drive my mini van back home about 7km formt he show to my workshop now the amazing thing is this van has been in storage for 2.5years and still has petrol in it that is 1.00 a litre after connecting the battery up she started without too many hassles giving the bores a quick hone with the rings out came all the rusty smoke and she idled like a dream.
Its a aussie clubman van and even with its flintstone passenger floor im happy to get it out now and finish it.
