Roof Is done, now there is just cleaning to do and it should look nice and professional.

Just bought 2 boards of OSB, 1 board of 3/4" MDF and 1 board of 3/4" plywood. Now to start camperizing the interior.

Here's the newest mods.
The rims are still being worked on, only the 'holes/cutouts/triangles/etc' will be red, the rest of the rim will be black.

I have waxed the van and have finished painting 2 of the 4 rims, the next 2 will be done the next time the sun shows itself and my girlfriend hasn't snagged me for the afternoon.

Painting them red was worth 8km/h more topend, now with the black only you will only gain 4km/h topend...

I am a function only person....Chrome will not get you home :)

I know I know, I get caught up with appearance. I guess that's what happens when you take an architecture course or it could be that I took the course for that reason. Either way it makes me feel good and gives me a hobby which is good. My engine is being well taken care of as well so at least I'm not putting form before function. The rims are very cheap to paint too so I won't be sad if I ding them while offroading.

AirCare went very well, CO2 emissions are down significantly with the only changes being a blanked and removed EGR and a side exhaust.

New bike rack with hitch to come in just over a week.

Tires went on well as well, balancing needs to be re-done though as one of the weights fell off.

Those rims keep the spirit of the 80's alive and thriving! Thumbs up.

Just add a little silver stripe and you could have Eddie Van Halen's guitar.

There are a few small silver 'stripes' on there
