Found some infinised blocks I had made Mike that'll bring that rear down a little further if you want them? Might get a little closer to my old one then Do you still want the steering wheel and tacho/rev dash too?

Uncanny, I was looking at the interior picture and thought to myself, that needs a bench seat great looking van!

Personally speaking that is in the running the best thing i've seen on RR this year, in my top 5 personal favourites anyway just because i love old square edged pickups like that so much and that one looks massively cool with the graphics and wheels, like a sort of rally truck, would be cool to stick some number boards and a set of spotlights on the front etc on for a laugh, get it muddy and confuse people by having it look like it's just off a forestry stage or soemthing. Really cool as is though. I recently missed out on one of these, same 2wd model but a 2.5 NA dizzle for extra slowness and painted in a colour close to the well known subaru blue. Was sickened i missed it. Had a mazda B2200 a few years ago that i never got round to doign anything with beyond getting it running and changing the wheels. Did some stuff with the p100s alright but they were never square enough

I have fitted a decent stereo to it now, as well as an active sub, it sounds really good! Did a mini service on it the other day, changing the plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor arm and air filter, I've got the oil change to do once my new rocker cover gasket arrives as I want to do the tappets, and it is still running points so I need to adjust them and look into getting an electronic ignition to sod the nasty things off ;D

That looks ace! needs some evo recaro's and omp dished rally wheel inside to finish off the rally theme IMO.

How did I not see this until now that is amazing. looks better without the door decals on in my opinion and to be honest I wouldnt lower it any more. thats about the right height for me.

I agree about the Evo recaros and OMP wheel, However I think it'd clash witht he rest of the interior being tan.. I'm looking for a nice wood rim momo or Nardi 'wheel, and some tan sports seats.. I can't seem to come across a bench at present
