Ace job!
You mention on page 7 about the gutter trim for £12, were was it from please?

[Dazco]

I used rubber U section and came from http://Www.woolies.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Another alternative is wheel arch trim for minis

[Dazco]

Yeah ,thanks .
Phred you have pm, ps Andreas had the oven on ( didn't suit her )

[Dazco]

few more jobs done.
Fitted spots wired to main beam . These are off Andreas MIni(yeah she does know) took em off when we got the new Polo

Look nice and classy with the chrome backs and they are good quality

Only snag is there is very little adjustment so im gonna have to make some angled spacers to fit under them to lift the beam up.
Also fitted a clock to the dash pod which Phred gave me when i bought the van. What i thought was gonna be a 10 minute job turned in to a good few hours.
the connector strip that on my old set was at the side the one on the new set was along the bottom and didnt work right, as a result i had a bit of hacking to do with the dremmel to get it all to fit.

Ive also improved the dash lights making small reflectors for the bulb holders.

I note you just had to get the comment in that 'andrea' knows as if anyone on here would stir it

[Dazco]

Thought it wise mm I've been on here now long enough to see how things work . Daz

NICE VISIT


Today we had nice visit from one of the best vans I have seen in a long time (Hello Jambo).
In Jambo was two very nice people, along with two very nice four legged friends who have worked hard to give Jambo a second life (hello Daz, Andrea, Poppy & Holly)
Looking forward now to a return visit in the Spring/Summer.
Andrea hun, Dot send her love and says all the best and when you feel low just have rest and a smile xxx

Phredd, Dot & Sasha. (till we meet again).

Hi Dazco,
Any chance of some more pics of the seating setup in the back of your van?
Long way off for me but nice to dream.

Ben

[Dazco]

Ill get some on for you tomoro. It is a normal installation for this conversion and we love it .

[benlawlor85]

Thanks look forward to seeing that. Similar to what i want to do eventually. Just need to learn to weld first, so i can get the body sound on the van first. What welder did you use? and did you have experiance welding before?
Cheers
Ben

[Dazco]

Used an SIP model ill get details again tomoro , too bloody cold to go out tonight, i had done a bit before but nothing as big as Jambo. rebuilt my dads T2 years back and also a '69 Beetle, that was a full body off resto.
Also did some on my brothers '72 westfalia T2 before we went to Switzerland All self taught so im no expert.

[Dazco]

just got some pics between snow flurries.





And the welder, bought it off Phreds lad when i got Jambo.
used it with gassles wire and did a good job


\sip migmate 105, cracking little welder for home use.

[benlawlor85]

Cheers for that. The seating looks great better than a rnr in my opinion. Are those seatbelts back there too?
Ill look up the welder thanks again
Ben
