Yeah it was bent to start off with but  I may not of helped it any.

 The van is now working and back on the road. theres a few little teething issues but nothing a good week end can't fix.
And you thought owning a bedford was going to be easy.

is that cd player mounted flush with the dash? is there plenty of room there for a cd unit or is it a bit tight?

hi people's

   if any one is interested is a hell of a long way to ride a kawasaki zx6r ninja from sydney to the gold coast in 1 day.

  Now to answer your questions, the cd player is flush mounted but you cant have heater controls as well, personally its not
how i would of done it but thats how it was bought. I not to sure what the carbs are off but i'm thinking more around the
HR times, I thought the xu1 came with only with the triple SU's but I aint no holden fan.
  I dont know how good the oil cooler is where its mounted but I drive like a grand pa and I dont tow anything so it works for
me, I'm guessing it gets enough air down there.
And you thought owning a bedford was going to be easy.

Matty the carbs are most likely off an X2 HR as the XU1 had triple Stromburg CD 150.
