Pennys sound system, which doubles up as a glasses holder for my spare specs. One day I will get around to getting a stereo fitted. I understand a cd/radio is too deep to fit but was wondering if one with a cd changer would as the cd part would be in the back of the van. I read on here that there are ones that take mp3 & memory cards etc fit but I have hundreds of cds & like to just grab owhat ever takes my fancy as I head out the door. Don't fancy sitting putting them all on the pc

Got a perfect sized peice of wood from a chap on freecyle to keep my work stuff from flying about the van. Got 4 bolts from family bargains for a grand total of £1.98. Today I had to drill the holes out a bit more & fit rubber grommets as the sound of the bolts against bare metal work was awful

Today I also drilled a couple more holes through the panel & put bolts through to keep the spare wheel upright out of the way. Easily accessible if I need it or to remove to take out the divider panel when I need to use the full length of the van

Penny loaded up for a days work, delivering sweets to raise money for our local childrens hospice.
I don't suppose anyone maybe able to advise what my tyre pressure should be. This is my normal load a big blue ikea bag full of bags of sweets & the other stuff would equate to the weight of a second big blue ikea bag full

Just fitted new lower hinge to the drivers door & put a door stay on. That door still seems to swing open quite a bit further than the passenger door for some reason scratch

Oh sorry ! Sweet van for a sweet lady lol!

Just got round to checking my tyre pressures after I've had her a month Smile they were 40 psi all round. After reading other comments I put the front to 30 & left the back at 40 see how it goes. A couple of weeks ago we had a little rain one day & the rear end got a little skitish...was good fun but not really ideal. Does that mean the weight of my sweets is not really very significant so the pressure should masybe be even a little less than 40 or should it go the other way & be put up a little ??

Very nice van, i like the black grille and headlight surrounds.

You can fit a normal sized CD headunit if you fit a centre console which turn up on ebay now and again Smile
