Hi sorry new to this stuff, haven't got to grips with posting pictures.

Anyway this is my van, had it for almost four years. I killed the first engine, then wacked another in then I had tons of trouble. Then lost intrest in it, till I bought an R1 set up, which got me back into enjoying the old girl again.

It's got a Irmscher pre 97 bumper, and not long bought a rear bumper, to get rid of the horrid reiger fly catcher.




Sorry but if you click on the image you can see it better.
Anyway this is how my engine bay kind of looks like, because I've broken it again, so it's in bits.
I've only just this week got my block back from being over bored

Yeah keeping the bumper, I don't think I've seen both parts of the bumper on the road, like mine.
It's just a shame it's a DIY spray can job

Did they do the conversion? Because they are crap at wiring. It's had 10 owners. The first company that had it were based in Tamworth, because you can see the old sign if you don't polish it

I think the engine lasted about two months before I broke it
After that it didn't run right. Did it have the re-trimed seat back then?
It's mad because it's had so much spent on it before I had it. But let down by the wiring.
I got it from Stroud Glos.
