Van-tasy...: May 2010
http://van-fantasy.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Symplicity in Electricity, or not. I recently called in our re-enforcements in the electrical department. My step-father, Glen is an electronic scientist who works for the airplane landing gear firm in town. We are hoping we can solve the big fancy equation located right in the dash. After that, we can get that window from the 74' and sadly send it on it's way to the bone yard. Here is Glen doing his thing. Junk in the trunk. Body metal we ordered from the interweb.

Van-tasy...: Chassis Decay/Bulking
http://van-fantasy.blogspot.com/2011/11/chassis-decaybulking.html
Sunday, November 13, 2011. Dad and I went and got some lengths of metal from the fab shop in town to help re-enforce the chassis. Metal was about $30, well worth the piece on mind when your whole rear assembly is hanging on by the skin of it's teeth. Little bit of fiberglass in there to keep the dirt out of the axle area. I will have several more 'complete' photos when I get all the fiberglass on there. Tears of Rage Film. Gots me a new sway bar! Oil leak mystery: SOLVED! Patch job thanks to JB Weld.

Van-tasy...: Engine Facelift!
http://van-fantasy.blogspot.com/2011/11/engine-facelift.html
Sunday, November 13, 2011. I think the first time you do anything it's going to take you 3-times longer, no matter what. The process of removing an engine is very tricky, it requires dueling car jacks, inching each other up, pulling the engine forward, up pull, down, up. Inch by inch. Finally she comes loose and out. Here are a couple photo's showing off the make-over process. Got some of that oil slick off of there. Nice and Tidy, re painted engine tin and oil breather. Now, On to the brakes!

Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Painting Bumpers, Buffing Caps, Performance Header! I was recently in Kingston picking up a couple boxes of parts for the van! I got me-self A LOT of goodies :) The van parts were also all from a 72' transporter, I lucked out. There was everything from hub caps, emblems, door seal, rims, electronic switches, the original van manual, tools and even a performance header. I was very pleased, Thanks Jason! Fixing a hole where the rain gets in and stops my mind from wondering.
