another update I'm not thrilled to be making, especially after such a long period of radio silence.
Having gotten through the first few months of fatherhood, I found ten seconds free to do some work on the van in preparation for another episode of my YouTube series.
I began by removing the fuel tank to replace my in-tank pump that had failed- resulting in average starting and surging in 1st gear.

If the replacement pump lasts 320,000kms I'll be very happy.
I then spent the afternoon washing under the van and getting it camera ready. Having finished I decided to fill the fuel tank.
On my way home the vehicle behind me at the traffic lights decided to test the structural integrity of my van.
Thankfully this time around- the other driver has insurance.
So while I wait for the results of my assessment inspection to come back (been waiting over a month now), I got busy.
Hopefully I can find another door in good condition for not a great deal of money.
I'm hoping my hard work means that whatever pay out amount is awarded, cant be solely put toward having the van sprayed.
I have hoarded too many parts, and completed to many significant life events in this van to give up on it.
Hopefully my next post includes another door fitted and ready to hit the road
