What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Chippy1970]

Finally got a chance to finish off my bed/drawer system. Had to take all the metal work out a few weeks back as the powder coat was chipping off. Took awhile but it has been stripped and re painted and looks much better now. I'm thinking of adding and cross brace behind the seats to help keep it all square. I can start looking at mattresses now maybe a folding one

Ps excuse the dust lol

Rugs for bugs rubber mats arrived today. Any ideas on how to remove back to black grease off plastic? Can’t stick them down!

Another option for bracing is to use the lower 3rd row seat fixing locations above the wheel arches using 7/16" UNF bolts

Brake cleaner is my go to - good call

Happy with the upgrade, only took me about a year to attempt the gator

I had some fun and games with my air heater. Maximum circulation and room for more stuff up front.

It's solid as a rock; I'm pretty happy with it.

Parked my van up. Got to Stansted and now in Turkey for a week. Take it easy guys!

Unfortunately, it had to be arranged in that orientation because of needing the hot air on the N/S

Have a safe journey.
I literally just invested in some Turkish Lira, you'll find a cheap coffee there

Yeah I saw that VanKing offered that as an option. I'm probably going with an X behind the seats, seems a bit more simple

@Dave512. Well done that man - I do love a repurposed ammo box!

Spotted my old van on Autotrader.

It went from me in Southend at beginning of August, to WBAV in Southend, to the BCA auction site in Kent, and appeared yesterday at a van dealer in Newark (and has had some hideous wheels fitted to it )

All joking aside it was an awesome van, had no issues and (apart from the massive mark-up) will make a lovely van for a new owner.

You’ve got an opportunity to do the most @t6blo thing I’ve ever seen here…

Ok, so I do have abit of a precedent here, but that would be sheer lunacy

Not what I would have wanted to do

Fitted the new side bar which I’d managed to wreck, bodywork all sorted and looking much better
