Thank you bud, that was nice to hear. My poor old man persuaded me to buy my van lol the trouble is he won't let me to contribute to anything, he don't drink so I can buy him some beers, and if I do but him anything I get loads of grief for it lol . He's been working on stitching my seats for the last 3 days just to design and stitch a pattern that's never been done before. As I say to everybody, if it wasn't for my dad I wouldnt have the quality of van I do have, I wouldn't have the knowledge I have and I wouldn't have such a close relationship with my dad. It's pretty sad really as he always doing things that benefit others, majority us 3 kids but never has anything for himself.I feel really bad for having my van in his unit for so long as he has put this aside for my van ☺

Well, engine is due to come out in the next few weeks as I have diesel in my engine oil, a very strong smokey burn on my exhaust gases, and the van is running flat as a fart, it's a shame to take it apart, but needs must. It's having a full rebuild properly this time as I was mislead with work that wasn't done previously and will be doing everything by the book. Watch this space for pics etc, will also be doing my 5th gear MOD at the same time aswell. More pics etc to follow.
Thanks for looking guys.
Josh
