I can't wait to see the interior in this one take shape. You don't have a build thread started for it? | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Dec 2017 Posts: 494 Likes: 21 addict | addict Joined: Dec 2017 Posts: 494 Likes: 21 | Hmmm...in the beginning I wasn't quite sure Lil' Shitty was worthy of a build thread because it was pretty slow-going at first but he's come a long way since he first came to live with us (yeah, my van is a dude). What started off as a bit of a beater turned into a keeper.
Maybe I'll compile all of my progress pics when I've got the time and start a thread. | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 6,256 Likes: 164 Master Metal Sculptor | Master Metal Sculptor Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 6,256 Likes: 164 | Hmmm...in the beginning I wasn't quite sure Lil' Shitty was worthy of a build thread because it was pretty slow-going at first but he's come a long way since he first came to live with us (yeah, my van is a dude).

I know there's filler on the van, I just don't want to risk installing the front pieces as one and then breaking one. That is about as close as I can get with the passenger flare without being too far forward or back. I think I will just fiberglass over the gap and call it good. Thoughts? I will look at it again on Saturday.

If so go for it. Yeah, I'm going to mold them all into the body. It'll match the whole way around once that's done.

Wasted a lot of time but I found a few uncovered live wires. That’s something at least.
