Rob Cee's transit - start of makeover

[robbie.cee]

Have you removed the heat/soundproofing from the underside of your bonnet mate?

Might help with heat dissipation.

TIM

hi m8 not yet done so, as pulled rubber seal strip off from scuttle area.

nick reckons he got some that ll fit, so just be a case of making up another 2 into one if the manifolds allow the necessary route... time will tell!

Well a neighbour just handed me 3 strips of leds that run on 12v and are cuttable.
Nice!
Will find places to fit em when I Do the rear out as a day van !

So now I got 2 Ali framed 4foot long led strips up for sale made by Philips.
Pm me for details. And see older pix too

Barry did you say you had some of this stuff and the clips?? wanna bget me seats in soon so would be result if theres some local!! lights ere!
sorry i never got back to you weds- after my physiotherapy i felt absolutely beaten up !! felt like elbows stuck in back, dragged up to neck and all sorts. wouldnt have minded but it was a BLOKE not the tidy brunette who signed me up

[robbie.cee]

oh and if anyones coming this way and wants to grab the pipe off my van, i can get it off: just too manic to get to Tims as work van got some naughty tracker on it now... might be a while til i get to venture out to play !

[robbie.cee]

Had a lovely long lay in til 1230 this afternoon! whoops was gonna get up sooner!
wasnt all bad, by then sun was sort of out and it was warm ish so i jumped to it and started sorting out my new fuel lines and relocated fuel pump!

old Di shyte being replaced as its too easy to damage, and too near exhausts!


pull this off to gain extra access behind heat shields


test to see if pipe would go where i wanted it


theres access right at back on right side if you can get your hands in there


exiting from heat shield under van (return hose)


both flow and return, flow braded from carb to here, so is return but cant see as slightly shorter braiding


and pump power line, or 110v cable if your picky!


return from bonnet to tank along chassis rail


pump relocated


toyed with idea of fitting inline filter, toss up between pump life and less risk of air ingress... new hose used so i fitted it!


return will get hot still but least its not by a manifold.


need to get piccy of flow pipe in position, will do it tomo!!

next on list of jobs to do will be get seats fitted , bulkhead moved or chopped up, and windows fitted!

[robbie.cee]

and all that work deserved this


MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
