my ex german mk1 fire van 1970

[Vandalism]

i dont think the thing on the front is the boss i think its fot a rubber cover/horn push - i guess it can be unscrewed if you dont have a horn push

[Luke]

i see

similar to this i think it's the same wheel

[Vandalism]

the wheel on my transit was made by les leston but im not sure about the boss

[Vandalism]

a little more work today - mainly with the tailgate again

But i need your honest oppinion, im having mixed feeling as weather to keep the van as original as possible or going down the slight custom van route - what i mean by that is modifications that can be reverted back to original if needed- like the steering wheel,cortina mk2 drivers seat And mainly the front air dam - Whats your opinion on the front air dam - good look - bad look i rather like it and would get it painted the same colour of the van (most likely midnight blue)



p.s this is an original 70s custom part - the guy i bought it off said he bought it for his transit in the 70s

[Luke]

well if you dont want it i'll have it

[Vandalism]

you would have it wouldnt you i might end up using it but if i dont...guess whos first in line

[madmark]

i think custom would be a good way to go

[Vandalism]

i have now found the holy grail of badges i have been looking for

and yes that is parkay flooring in my living room

[madmark]

erly badge 1967
if it hasnt a join in the middle its a genuine job

[Vandalism]

it hasnt a join in the middle that and the fact it has a stamped ford badge on the back

i thought it was an earlier badge than 67 ive seen some on 65 vans (in photos) and pre production photos
and they seem to be quite common in germany on early transits

My opinion is if you are going to cutomise the van with that spoiler you have to go all out with customising everthing including airbrushing like these viewtopic.php?f=17&t=81240 Make it look 70's

if i were you i would leave it as standard as posible ( No spoiler)

[Vandalism]

i guess..i havnt fitted the spoiler yet as it requires 4 holes to be drilled to be moundes where the front bumper brackets are..im still unsure weather to use it or not..

ill probably end up trial fitting it and see what it looks lik from a distance and make my mind up

[noah]

like the van but not the front spoiler

[Vandalism]

mixed ractions....im still undecided tho

[madmark]

sorry ment to say yes 65 to 67
