Woo Hoo, got the call from "boy wonder ' today, he's hand making some lower door skin panels for the Cargo Door and the Right Hand Barn Door - i purchased that full Left Hand Barn Door Skin from Qld last month that was on ebay that he's also fitting and he reckons he wants a trial fit on the van by the end of this week!!!

Getting the other bits from England - hopefully on their way here in a couple of weeks so it's all looking to be on target for the Bright Rod and custom Show in November - fingers crossed!!!

I'll put up some pics when i get em

Got my doors back from Marty the magician last week, not only did he fabricate the lower outer skins, he remade the inner frames as well where they were rusted - now the proud owner of 1 x cargo door and 2 x barn doors completely rust free!!!! pics in my gallery if you wanna have a squiz

Started working on the dash yesterday, pretty happy with the result so far. I was going to graft an old EK dash in but after measuring and calculating i figured that the time and money would be well spent on other things, kind of glad really, i've always had a soft spot for the Easyroller Dash anyway.

Nice and tidy. Looks good Mezz.

Looks great! Are you going to keep it white?

Its painted in 2 pack primer at the moment, i'll end up painting it the same color as the van exterior.

Been researching these Vintage Air systems.........mate do they sound like the dux guts, i spoke with my resident Auto Elec (as a digression, if you ever need a sparky local Melbourne Metro - you WILL NOT get any better than this guy.........and he's mobile) James reckons they are a piece of piss to fit and the option are endless - when the time comes, i was thinking of doing a video 'expose' to show how its done.....any takers?

it's not real cheap, about $1700.00 but its full air con and heating - woo hoo

Mezzmo,

I have been looking at this system too. TCR components are agents for Vintage Air in Bayswater, http://www.tcrcarponents.com.au
I will finish my bodywork before I get to this stage. Let me know how you get on.
