My 1995 Transit Mk5 Refurb

[paul2012]

Hi People

This is My Transit Mk5 2.5D 120 SWB Ex BT Van, I clean up last year- I sold the van for £1800 cash last November

upgrades I have done - Power steering, rev counter, central locking, electic windows, electric mirrors

she was abit scruffy but chassis & engine / running gear is perfect condition when I bought it but soon cleaned up ok



Rear arches cut out & new ones welded in



New front wings / arches fitted



One rear arch finished



This side of van is finished



Work in progress on other side





This side is finished & Rear Doors replaced with solid ones & reflective chevron fitted



Now Come the Upgrades, Power steering now fitted !







Instrument cluster from a diesel mondeo, & yes Rev counter does work (very easy to wire up - connects to alternator)



New front bumper fitted





Plyboard has been replaced

Thanks guys - van did look alot cleaner once finished

I am now currently modding a 2004 connect at the moment.

Although I do have another 2002 mk6 Transit T280 100ps with elec windows / mirrors, heated windscreen, front foglights etc.
Only thing I have done to so far is fitted later rear lights

I think I will fit a mk7 front end with dash, but that won't be until I have finished my connect

Is the MK6 you have there the executive model?

Is the MK6 you have there the executive model?

I thought the executive model had the 125ps engine ?

Where this only has the 100ps, althought it does have everything including drivers arm rest. But it doesn't have air con

So unsure on that one

Iirc the sales man told me these were exec models as I took one out for a spin whilst they were getting the one I got ready, the only reason I did not go for it was I needed a bigger van.

I did not now that

Its a cracking van with plenty of engine power, overtakes lorries etc no problem even when loaded.
Bodywork is fairly tidy too. Spot of rust on both front wings, but that doesn't matter as they will just get replaced.
Could do with drivers seat being replaced due to tear in it, but again thats minor.

Executive was 100ps, and yours is an executive
125ps didn't appear for another couple of years

Good work there, should last for a few more years
