hey guy's,

i have a fibreglass console in the roof that holds my stereo, aeroplane reading lights and 1 light for the rear of the van.

it also has some storage in it,

also it has a sticker on it that says BIG TRAK. maybe they can be bought, or ben or someone else that is good with
the glass can use mine as a model, mine has been trimmed though which makes it harder.

Well I have decided to fill the cabin in, the only thing I use the space for is to move house
and help other people move house LOL I put my motorbikes in it too.

With my design it will sleep 2 people and hold 2 bikes and I am going to incorporate a small
fridge and cooker into it aswel. The ultimate road trip, bike trip, "Bedford Excursioner Extroadinaire!"

yeah ben the console looks ok, will post a pic when my camera turns up. its not huge so it doesnt get in the way but it still holds more than if you didnt have one.

i am still interested, not sure which way to head yet tho,
i have my injected 202 here which is going to be turbocharged or a positive drive blower? not sure yet.
 thats the first one as its almost strait swap (cept for wiring) 
but i have a polyspere 318 (chrysler ) motor on the way. needs rebuild so its not going to be a quick change.

BUT.... i was toying with the idea of a mid mount v8???

save on steering, handleing, room is an issue also too. have you seen any, i have only heard the myth of a jag v12 in the back of one.

cheers
Ben
