Well, the weather gave me a chance to get started on the tear down of my baby. :twisted:
 -
 -

I had more pics but I screwed them up so they will be loaded tomorrow.
I found out that I have a rear ac, which will come in handy during the summer. Now its time to add a few goodies I've gotten just for her!
 -
 -
maybe a few more of these just to be safe.
 -
and I can't forget these guys
 -
step down module
 -

The GOAL!
 -
OR BETTER! :twisted:

Now that I have an AMERICAN VAN, which side is best for the subs to be on? :dunno:

It would be nice but, for me personally, it would be a hollow victory. I like knowing that I can build something with the help from my teammates and friends and win. It like trying to say I painted a picaso, I may fool some newbies, but some one will catch me sooner or later. [Frown]

I know someone who should read this. Ah, not important.
Gavin, I admire your integrity. Best of luck on the van.

wow a Japan competitor with an Astro van? All I know is I've seen American cars go in to Japan and come out tweaked to perfection. I'm sure you are going to be teaching us a thing or two. I look forward to watching this thread develope. As well as take notes hahahaha LOL.

Kimo, I'm American but I just live here (for the last 15 or 16 years!LOL). As for the tweaked out cars.. you name it, they do it here! some are nice and some look like crap. take as many notes as possible. its all about learning!

Lesson 1: if your gonna use magic mate 400, be prepared for some long hours intstalling it! between doing the roof and laying a second layer on the doors, I'm looking at 2 or 3 days worth of work! [Freak] [Sad]
