Mk6 College blue , refurb time !

[martynx]

New seats fitted, old news but still proud of em, they are from a 1990 minibus, got a squeezey thing for lumbar , i took them out to fit the tourneo carpet & re-sprayed the seat framework , looks a lot smarter.




Getting body ready for painting -


Gonna do it same colour, because my mate ( who's the one doing the lions share of the paint) doesn't like doing colour changes, but roof will be black ala Nitroman





Found a hole under the corner trim !

Good work as for the rust what mk6 hasn't got rust

[martynx]

Thanks Pete, rust wise, yes, affects all it seems , I am welding both arches a little at front edges... and redoing underneath , I jenilited it and stone chipped it last summer and all rust came straight back! GOnna wax oil it after body is painted...

I might fit some nice seats when I get old.

I'm always swapping seats for my back.. Todays plan is to get an iveco Isis suspension seat , as fitted to Dailies.. Dual in your weight in kilos & off you go:)

[martynx]

None on eBay though recently .

But have got new exhaust & some Sachs front struts and some old torneo alloys being returned at mo so plenty to do...

Nice work
Those seats are really comfortable
MK6/7 seats are really dreadful Don't blame you for changing them

[Altransit]

Hmmmm, might look into one of those seats myself

[martynx]

Back to 1990 - it's the way forward

[Altransit]

It must be true My 1997 Minibus seat is loads more comfortable than the 2004 one

[martynx]

I got these today , because they look nice! Crossovers to pimp my sounds:) hoping to impress mike s

It takes a lot to impress Mike S

Front of the rear arches welded up nice but Some delays as sill on n/s was too rusty, ordered a new one ...

Found some tourneo rear doors at 200 locally so gonna check em out , i wanted glass in rears anyway and a glass kit is 130 and my doors need new rubbers and have a few dents here and there plus the tourneo doors look better with wiper and heating !
