Heres an update on this weeks work, ive been working on it solid to meet next months deadline, ive got to finish the brakes, bleed them, weld in some seatbelt mounts, patch up a few small holes ive found under the front, and then i think its MOT time!
This is how the interior is looking, the original devon moonmaker interior was about knackered after the van was used as a dog kennels for a decade but i love it so ive done my best to save it. Ive sanded it down, stained it and varnished it doing my best to remove the water staining. Itll never look great but its all part of the vans history! Oh and ignore the cushons, they are rank and will be replaced as soon as i find a sponge supplier!
Note the new carpet, nice and warm for winter camping
After ages of trying to wire my lights up and burning out indicator relays i found that someone had welded my wiring loom melting all the wires :evil: another job...
My front indicators were full of water and so rusted up that the bulb would not earth, so i shot blasted them and sprayed them silver, not a bad job and they work good as new now, although im going to need some new seals soon.
Last job of the week, replacing the brake shoe backing plates and fitting new handbrake cables. I couldnt get the hub nuts off so out came the angle grinder and chisel!
