h1_roll4 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 hey all. i been driving this around for a few months. just using it to get to and from work and the occasional bush thrash. its really become my ghetto fix car. when i got it only the headlights worked, nothing else, drivers seat was just foam and wire (mmm comfy), the drivers window didnt work, and the radio didnt work. ive got the lights working now and the window, ghetto sylezzz (pics of ghettoness later) and chucked another seat in. ive spent no money on it and don't really plan to. maybe a bunnings spray job. i need it to not get yellow stickered til mid next year so I'm trying to make it... presentable. anyway pics!

Mybowlcut Posted October 18, 2008 Report Posted October 18, 2008 I can say from experience that this is the car to end all cars. Quote
JiP Posted October 18, 2008 Report Posted October 18, 2008 Hey, nice P'van. I can't really tell from the photo but is the passenger seat vinyl, or velour?? Looks nice either way. And lastly, I really don't think you should bush bash this car. These vans are getting quite rare. You'd be ablle to make money off it by selling the parts (like the rare front end) or selling it as a whole. Quote

I'm actully planning to keep most the stuff off it for my other van and the drivers seat is vinyl... mmmm comfy in summer Quote
h1_roll4 Posted October 19, 2008 Author Report Posted October 19, 2008 ok. pics/storys of the ghettoness when i got the car the windoww kept playing up and falling out of the rail so i got some silicon from work and kinda put some inbetween the rail and the glass has lasted quite well. next was the rear lights not working. i had headlights, high beams, reverse lights, indicators and brake. thats it so i couldnt drive at night. i ran a wire from the battery to a switch in the car, then to a LED (so i know when its on), then to each of the rear lights and the number plate light. another update on it.. my friend came over my house last night, she can't drive very well... did that pulling up onto my driveway :) Quote

How did your friend manage to damage your rear bumper pulling into a driveway? Quote

JiP Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 You violated the 11th Commandment. Tho shalt not let woman drive thy car. You serious that passenger seat is vinyl?? Looks cloth. Nice tho :yes: Oh yeah and you've got to love vinyl seats in summer. I just love when I hop into my car and my shirt rides up so my lower back gets scalded. Or when you don't have a shirt on. Or not wearing a shirt and being sunburnt and sticky. Then every time you pull away the seat rips at your skin. mmm Quote
