thought it was about time i put a build thread up as i am starting to put my van back together after being off the road for about 4-6 years.
damaged my back at work and had to have a few operations so its been sitting since then. still on loads of meds so can only do i bit at a time.
bought the van for 300. about 6 years ago. prob had to do 50 hours welding on it, it was bad.
new rear quarter panels. new wings. sliding doors sill needed welding. foot steps needed welding.
floor had about 10 big holes. inner arches needed welding and the front members where gone.
rear arches have been raised about 6 in. still have to do the front but want to get it on the road first.
specs.
1.9d
forged rods/pistons
head rebuilt. new guides. reground valve seats. ported
bottom end rebuilt. new bearing/seals
new water pump
glow plugs
rebuilt vacuum cylinder
new wheel bearing
14mm fuel pump, custom camplate. custom boost actuator.
new injector nozzles and reshimmed.
air suspension front and back.
m65 supercharger.
things to do:
exhaust looking into making as custom side exit. gotta cut the side of the van out to fit.
bottom pulley rubber gone.
couple of brake pipes need doing.
prob a few other things lol.
