Finally got around to laying the floor, the back is almost complete now. Just a couple of covered panels to add and shes done. I also need to change the rooflining studs for black ones.

I like the black panels👍

I put air in my tyres today....🙄 the fronts were less than 20 psi. What a pillock!

I've fitted a new heater blower, thermal resistor and pollen filter.

Now I can use the heater on 1, 2 & 3.

So far so good, finished it late last night so only been running it today, to be honest it was a pain to fit, couldn't really find any clear instructions online about the rear axle flip. But got it done, originally put it in third hole but it was way to low and was rubbing arches so put it in 5th hole down and looks great now I think

Took a perfectly good van apart so I can make it even less useable as a work van Image

@Shane_Slatcher that's awesome, luckily my friend is doing mine. Iv just spoken to him and he says hes got his head round it. Top mounts are been replaced to as they look a little shabby. Then on to trying to get the wheels to fit

@mainframex, cheers buddy, they we're cheapy ones from ebay, I think I paid about 16 quid for them. Bought a IR controller so I can turn them on by remote, that was about 4 quid.

Toyed with that idea so many times and nearly bought the abp set up but for the money I don’t think it’s reliable enough and could buy another van for less Image
