Leather wheel cover out of a Jag..free. I like free. Headboard I'm gonna break down and use some of the pieces for my bed headboard...w/marble inlays in the posts which I may use as a port way into the bed area. I picked up some wooded door panels to copy and will be mounting my window switches and made these leather door pulls. And I was able to find an original bicentennial (76) flag and put it on my headliner. Weird but I'm really happy with that. It finishes the space between the 2 wooden strips I put on. it for now. ...looks like a great score .... Proud member: Shenandoah Valley Vans ............"

Also jacked the front end up off the ground, tires went flat since being in storage since Nov. Getting new wheels anyways and tires, otherwise I'll take these off and have them redone and keep them or sell them. | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 2,847 Likes: 42 veteran | OP veteran Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 2,847 Likes: 42 | Yesterday I twisted up 25 feet of 8 awg cable for my Solar charging circuit. Should allow higher voltages to make it to my MPPT charge controller and thus more amps into my Batteries. | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 467 addict | addict Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 467 | Went to the jy today got power locks, rear pop out glass, a tire carrier, and stuff... got the tire mounted (its coming back off, I dont like it there) and got one rear pop out window in The dash got a bit of a face lift too, Wood cup holder, 3 outlet 12v plug in, and chrome radio knobs from a caddy (oh and my 2 lil driving buddys)
