Hey Mick,

been ages since I've checked in on this thread. The van is coming along nicely, the blower is a sweet addition. Can't wait to see this jigger on the road.

Cheers
Sam :D

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

well it did happen :D :clap: but needs some sorting tune up wise :( but that's to be expected mostly just fueling up for some reason :? :problem: no burnout either :( :( as at the moment no booster so have to apply a lot of pedal pressure for brakes to work which brings the back brakes on hard :thumbsdown: (if it had a slippery or a CIG locker i'de have clamped off the back brakes so it would be worthwhile :twisted: ) but still happy I can sit in it hit a switch start the engine put it in gear and move it without having to push it around :D :thumbsup:

I do have video but not at home and do ou think I can get the f#%king thing off my phone :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: when I'm back home i'll be on to it though 8)
