Newbie Questions

Postby vasser » Sat Feb 27, 2010 11:55 pm

Been lookin through the forum which has helped massivly, but still got a few questions. If any one can point me in the right direction that would be great.
Got a 1999 Transit Van, Think its a short wheel base, but not sure. 2.5Diesel.

1)- I want to fit alloy wheels, i have found some web pages that sell alloys for vans but i'm not very keen on them. Ideally I want the wheels from the ford focus ST. Can i do this? Seen some sports vans with these on.

2)- There is a fair amount of rust on the wheeel arches, can i replace these panels easily and cheaply?

3)- Whats the deal with electricity. Batteries and an Inverter is what i've found out, but where do i get this type of kit? Is there certain types to go for/avoid?

4)- Been lookin for blueprint drawings for the van, so i can design a custom style paint job. Any one got a copy of these, i'm wanting front, side, back and roof if possible.


Any way thats all i can think of right now, Thanks for any replies.

For the Van will decide -
It's not the DESTINATION...

...It's the glory of THE RIDE.
