Hi folks, this is my vb11 panel van. It's a bit rough as it was a painters car in a previous life. Has had an E15 swap (originally E13) and 5 speed.
No big plans for this one but I have another on in the shed in primer. Still deciding what direction to take with that one.

Hi! White as snowball b11 van is very nice. Work out possible rust carefully.
Is it difficult to do it street legal with e15et over there?
Suspension is a kind of problem with increased power. Does it have front stabilizer bar? I've planned lowering mine at some phase.

Thankfully this one doesn't have much rust. Bit of surface rust in the bay which I'll tackle soon and a bit of rust near the passenger door hinge. No front stabiliser bar, I'd love to source one.
Did a bit more work on it yesterday.
Sanded and painted the right fender to stop it rusting for now. Thinking about doing the whole car in satin grey as there is paint flaking off all over the place. Put fender mirrors on while I was working on the guard. Finished in the dark which is never fun but always seems to happen. Got some slotted front rotors which will be going on soon. I also need to polish and paint my wheels, had to put them on half done to pass rego.

If I can find a cheap exa/et I'll do the E15ET but I like na engines, might do a quad carb conversion later on.
