Loots Red custom

[wronghole]

Well done Loot looking good .Got that run on system on my ride . Great in Winter morning's. Start van, lock door go indoors have another coffee

It's great kind of hoping to see someone try jumping in the van then go flat on their arse

I've done this for years on cold mornings




You just use something called a key, in the door lock

See where your going sausage you got a spare key , leave main key in ignition and lock door with spare. Happy days

Is it done yet, ya cruising the rhyll promenade looking for a good time N

[loot]

it's done, just need tracking doing and sort bits out, need an indicator bulb.

As for cruising, every day it gets moved out of the factory to spend the day outside but it gets dangerously close to being scratched etc.

But

I dunno how to proceed with the swap over

Snowflake needs, cleaning and stuff then sold, tax rebate.

Red needs insurance swap and tax, then needs wing booked in for painting.

[ned]

tell your mrs to sell her car and use snowflake, this way you get to keep it sort of its winter you know so I would see the cold spell out in the white one and unleash the red one in spring. N

[loot]

Is like to do that but if like to park the red 1 somewhere safe rather than work as it's in a danger zone so to speak.

They both work just the same tho tbh bone dry and toasty warm so tbh it makes little difference which 1i use, although the red 1 is probably devaluing by about 20 pounds per day

Buy but buy sell sell sell

I get the new one ready then swap insurance over and put the old one off the road till someone purchase's it
do it
you know you want to

[ned]

I was thinking more about the nasty road salt, ya know the sht they mine in winsford and spread around the country to rot all them French vans .

are you not painting the wing yourself. N

[loot]

@bjt that's most likely

@ned good point, i need to paint underneath on the inside of the chassis leg and spray waxoil inside it all, but that's only an hour or so wknd.

Not painting the wing I'd rather get someone who's got the kit and practice in to do it perfect

Although I'd see my arse if i paid good money and it come back worse than what i could do It's ok mate its only a van!
You fooking what pal

[bigjohnthomas]

best way it gives you time to fanny about with your farty old tramps van
before a vagabond takes it away
I was thinking of swapping poo2 reg and insurance over to billy but forgetting to take the plates off the lime
and using them both for a bit while I get sooty sorted
no one will notice
they all have funny shaped heads round here

[loot]

So i nearly bought a passenger airbag cover for 60 pounds and 9 pounds postage but i held out and i just got a complete airbag for 100 pounds.

Woot! It's austerity you know, can't be splashing the cash about on frivolous things Especially with the forum xmas party coming up

[loot]

Bloody Hilti or 3rd party drivers



I'll repair that, was going to use the Allcock wheel repair department but found loots labs to be Marginly cheaper

Need to check it isn't buckled first tho

Does anyone know roughly what colour silver it is?

[Altransit]

There's a generic spray called "wheel silver" which is the one I use, and then clear lacquer. Moondust would probably be just as close

I'm going to go to the cheap shop tomorrow and try and match it up with a photo, I'll be doing the 2 front wheels and putting them either both on the same side or both on the back, i think same side would be best
