Shaggy, I saw this in Kilcoole next to where I work, parked outside the School of Rock!
I'll be down there today come over and say hello.
Didn't see ye today where are you working? I rent a unit down there where I store and work on the chevy.
Cool looking van you've got there, very unusual! Cant wait to see it after it gets its new paint job!
Have you any idea what those wheels are? Iv a friend who has two wheels that look very similar to those and he wants to try and get a full set, but can't find out what they are as his has no stamps on them so Id say his ones are replicas of what are on your van! Very cool looking wheels!!
Cheers Kyle, my ones are western cyclones but there was a lot of different brands making similar wheels, hurricanes, turbovecs. I have another set for sale but they only fit bigger american vans and trucks as they are 8 lug. Send me a photo of yer mates ones and I can probably identify them.
Still chipping away at it....
I've brought it back to bare metal and painted it in rustbullet as the primer/base layer.
I've painted all of the "holes" in the van, door + window openings etc and am now in the process of putting it back together.I have all new weatherseals all around including new vent windows/window felts/ runners etc for the front doors.I've painted behind the grille in black as I have a tube grille and I reckon it looks better.
When all the windows and doors are back in and all of the fibreglass stuff is on (wheel arch flares, chin spoiler, sun visor) then I will mask it up for the top coat of paint.
