I like the project! I think you need to have the door fold in the middle somewhere because you will never be able to park next to another vehicle and open the door all the way. Looks like fun!

sorry for the delay guys we had more PBR than expected this weekend so we weren't in a condition to restore and modify the van. It was an unfortunate celebration due to our loss in the Champions League Final.

The fold isn't going to happen at this point in time we are to pressed for time . After the restoration this may be something i will go to and complete.

the T3 crowd over here would probably run after you with pointy sticks, and at first glance I'd tend to not blame them - but, on second thoughts, gotta respect the man. more pics!

ok, don't make yourself sick. You want to enjoy the games don't you. They are even going to open bars 1 hr earlier than normal here in Toronto so I guess they'll open across the province. They are even asking employers to let their staff watch the games at work due to the time change. Now they are complaining about the ball.

Yeah, but it's still the same award-winning can, and these days, it's cheaper than bottled water!

Continued best wishes on the project...
