Spoiled a perfectly good work horse
« on: February 06, 2011, 10:44:45 PM »
What some people will do to some Vans

The suspensions stuffed.


Theres no carpet on the floor


And even if the suspension did work how uncummmmmmfortable would it be to drive - wooden seats youd get spliters in ya clacka!


Jeez

A lot of work gone into it, but i agree with warren, how unpracticable, not quite my taste. A good display van i guess.

could almost use the back as a skate board bowl ramp thing - whatever they call them
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
