not got it booked in yet - i need to arrange it with Martin as i can't get it down without help (tow vehicle etc.)

there is no rush for the slam panel, petes van wont be done for a good few months and so long as he gets a slam panel then thats ok - i have fitted his slam panel and its all ok - just needs a few with cutting for the mk4 rad so i can cut this one if you have a white one :D

and being greedy ...... :P
we could do with a complete PAS set up - rack pump, pipes belt etc (and a volenteer to fit it) :D
also if anyone has a n/s (or pair) of white/clear indicators (i have a o/s one) that would be good to match the clear rears 8)
also it has a standard steering wheel - if we got PAS on it a sports steering wheel and boss would be nice :D

Was picking up a 3kg tin of filler today so bought another one while I was there :wink:

Should also have a spare Power Steering Set Up (need one for Karl's truck but have another good one so will take that one off the other van that's not goin back on the road)

Hi Luke, I have about 3.5lts of Masons S1050 tinter here in Black, (any of you lot used it before?), I can try a bit out and if it is OK it can be used for the roof.
Alternatively we have some 2K Blue, similar to the top part of the forum banner if you wanted?

has anyone got a knackered steering wheel or a boss (either capri or escort mk1) with a steel (not ally) splined centre :?: if you have and could donate it i'd be able to make a steering wheel for the van - i could just weld in the centre to another better looking wheel :mrgreen:

i'd just like to get rid of this steering wheel as its the really crappy ugly mk4 one :x
