What did you do to your van today?

Full service since the previous owner hadn't done it for 15000 miles

. That's a no go for me. Ill service it now religiously every 5000

Yes, they are VW San Diegos, 6,5x16 ET33, power coated satin black. They were mounted on the Panamericana concept.

Last night I removed the bulk head, replaced the inner door reflectors and fitted to wind deflectors to the windows (no air con).

Removing the bulk head was one job down, big job added as I found the mess it leaves the cab trims finish in. To the drawing board on that one. Any ideas??

Next is the rear lining. Need a weekend for that I reckon.

Is this an easy mod?

@Chalks
If you have a look on here (possibly won't access) or look on YouTube, a lot of people trim down the bulkhead to make covers for the pillar gaps. Once carpeted along with the rear, it looks pretty good.

Thanks Sync, I’ll have a look on you tube as I don’t have permissions yet.

Looks good. Did you have to do any modding to it?

Yeah, I couldn't find a good combo of that size wheel and tyres that are available in SA to reproduce that combo. From what I could figure out from the Pan Americana concept was that they modified the wheel arches. I went with VW SIMA 15" rims, also powder coated.

@anonemus, what size tyres are you using with those 15s, and do you have the details of the wheel arch trims, side trims and front chin? I like the idea of fitting to my Maxi to protect arches

cheers
