i brought the van with the OS engine mount broken. Then to find out that the part was £70 which seemed expensive but i needed it!
So i riped the engine out:thumb:

whilst taking the engine out from underneath i managed to drop the van on my hand and broke it lol but it was out!!!

so while i was waiting for the engine mount to arrive i decided to change the door handles and get rid of the locks by going to astra mk3 door handles!( im sorry if this is not to your taste but its for security more than anything!) i had broken a mk3 Cab so had all the stuff to do it!
http://i901.photobucket.com/albums/ac217/olienova/Image025.jpg cut it out
http://i901.photobucket.com/albums/ac217/olienova/Image026.jpg looked pretty bad at this point
http://i901.photobucket.com/albums/ac217/olienova/Image027.jpg Placed them in!
http://i901.photobucket.com/albums/ac217/olienova/Image028.jpg welded them up lol

then decicded it needed to go out side to be turned around
