My New(old) Runabout

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!

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.

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.

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
