It has some bad rusting going on under the sills, body work rust that looks like some one has bodge welded it and bitchumen painted it! I also found out today that there is some serious rust on the step of the passenger side steps.
It also a knocking diesel sound from the engine that I'm looking into, I spotted a leak from the Pump this morning and hoping it might be this that's causing it.The old dashboard had a lot of holes put in and left empty when the equipment was removed so made the dash look a little tatty, and this is where the idea came from to start converting the van to a MK7, 2 reasons for this 1 because of the state of the dash, and I love a challenge!
Here's some pics of the van
Pics of the conversion from yesterday and today:
It all went better then I though it would have, The lad I bought all the stuff of has missed some trims of and says he hasn't got them, so now I'm on the search for the under steering wheel trim and passenger side a pillar trim
But part from that I LOVE ITthings left to do to that dash:
Missing trims
Hazzard switch
Speedo
Gear conversion
Plans for the van now. Sort the knocking out, Welding the sills and new passenger step, re paint to Gun metal Grey and the MK7 Front
