Finish making my stainless exhaust system to quiet down the "quiet pack", so i can drive normally through towns without sounding like a boy racer.

 

[alex4057]

The TO DO list is never ending and generally more a want list than a need list, (some of the bits i have the rest am collating/building up money for)

Adj rear spring plates
Steam clean of underneath
Re fit 2 side windows where i cocked it up on the first go,
re fit all windows with proper deluxe trim rubbers and inserts
Re-waxoil and undercoat
Interior (LOADS to Finish it off proper)
Split Charge System
Tracker
Stereo
Mini PC
Fire extinguisher system

Tow Bar
Propex



the what NEEDS to be done is actual pretty small,

take it for a quick tune up,
MOT

Then drive it, so many people don't get to enjoy their vans cos they are worried about the TO DO list, my opinion, but i think most of the TO DO Items can be done when it's on the road and being enjoyed, I spent the last 2 year driving around with a half finished van in various stages, the first year it was in primer patches looking well rough, AND I STILL ENJOYED myself, so what if it looked a bit shabby, just put off the bits that don't get done this winter till the next time it gets rested up
