Great looking project, keep up the good work and updates. One question which part is surviving the scrapyard? as most of it looks brand new. Is it the roof vent by any chance?

[mini danny]

Thanks and will do :) and she started to become a much bigger project than I first thought haha and thing is it doesn't have a roof vent haha

Just had a read through this, I thought jagman's Mk3 was crazy, but this van is next level! Hats off to you for having the vision to get this done. Looking forward to the marriage of the old and new.

Cheers guys :) can't wait to get top and bottom welded up will be a big milestone complete :)

Got a bit more done last night. My bulkhead for some reason didn't come with the captive nuts at the bottom for the shock bolts. So had to cut old ones off and just cleaned them up now.

Got the 2 inner wings strengtheners roughly made up last night



And the Easter egg box came in handy for some CAD work haha




The captive nuts which I will try and get welded on tonight old ones cut off and cleaned up.






Thanks Dan
