Quick update today but havent had much time. Continued to strip the van out. I have sheared a few bolts because they were quite corroded and seem to have misplaced my 11mm spanner which hasn't helped.




As you can see from the pictures at some point the van has had a light front end impact. Thankfully though the chasis legs are nice and straight so no issues there. One thing I have found is the front cross member appears to be rivited or spot welded in place ? I don't remember my cossie one being done like this ? As a result I think the angle grinder be coming out tomorrow.

My Dad coming round in the morning so hopefully we have the old engine out by lunch time. I also went to the shop today and confused the check out assistant with my choice of purchase





Nothing will be going back on unless its new or painted

And to top the day off I got my delivery today, not bad two days from Newcastle Upon Tyne.




All for now, update you later.
