Default Mk1 connect

Been a member a while but never got round to uploading any pics of my van.


A lot of work done to it by my mate before I got my hands on it.


Few plans but not massive things as to be honest I like it how it is


Possible wheel change, some roof rails so I can take a few more mountain bikes and a few areas need tidied up.

It's a mk6 fiesta steering wheel, the ST one is basically the same but has an aluminium bit on the bottom spoke.

The van looks very nice.
Also saw one on ebay a few months ago with a mk1 focus RS engine and mk2 focus st seats.
