What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

Less is more, I like the subtle touch you have with that red, I think the wing mirrors would be too much

I do agree with the less is more bit, but in this case I think there is room for a little bit more to tie the red in to something else. Matching collar and cuffs springs to mind.

I'm thinking the top chrome streamer just under the bonnet (which I dont have) might look good as it's very narrow compared to the 2 lower ones ?

Cut the ears off my caravelle step as I have a one-piece floor around it, because that would be a cost-free mod, right? Now need clip from under step, see shrapnel in photo

Finally got round to fitting an internal release on the tailgate after buying all the bits and pieces.

Knew it all worked from testing beforehand but as this was the first real bit of electrical stuff i've done myself in the van I didn't realise how anxious I was making that first cut! haha.

Was pretty straight forward and pretty please how it turned out in the end :thumbsup:
 
Simple cab curtains, when the Rainbow is “OTT”

Could you give details of the switch you used and the wiring ? Looking at doing this shortly but I have electrical expertise. Have read a couple of threads on here about it....did you use a momentary switch or a Ford switch ?
 
Cleaned the van while taking advantage of warmish ...
It's parked up this weekend so the weekend rain will just hit it and not be splashing mud on it.

Had the van less than a week and the mods have started already.
Starting simple with a lower splitter and blue bumper trim to give the van a stronger looking chin.
Getting the urge to de-chrome the upper grill ....
