I have just found another bumper that fits the mk 3/4/5 vans perfectly and looks a bit different. I hopefully will be doing a trial fit over the next few days and you can see what you all think

jeez, all these mods in one weekend! what could be done in 6 weeks?????
put the mk1 back into production!

i vote for lukes pic of Jason Budd's arctic worrior! me likey!
especially the way a mk2 lower valence has been grafted onto the back!
if youve seen my van then you know i like the big and lil wheel idea,
only problem is that it has worse handling than a narrow boat!
i would go down the route of plenty of small yet tasteful mods with a v6/8 power, side pipes etc.
something that would please most tastes (remember if your selling for charity you want as many people to bid for it as poss)
maybe a "sleeper" type thing. looks pretty standard from a distance, looks awesome up close and try to race me and i'll piss all over you. sort of thing!

one thing to note, if the arches need replacing, we need to decide what wheels are being used, as if we use wide ones then we can make the arches to suit.

cosworth V6 or at least V6 of some sort V8 might be to high fuel consuption for some..thinking on who would buy it in the end.. or v8 and lpg kit..

A Rover V8 wont use any more fuel than a Ford V6 if its driven lightly, only if you give it some stick! Besides, it looks like we have one sorted already courtesy of transitgeoff

@Beefy, I agree on the handling, not quite as bad on a Mk4 with the IFS and R&P steering though and we could always adjust the castor/camber to suit if we have a good fabricator

Arches can be made to suit any wheels, either steel or GRP, GRP would be better if we decide to skirt it.

German ww2 desert/tropical mottled camoflage.

[redcube]

lower the front and make the back higher
