Well started to tackle to bad wiring in the van and decided nothings worth saving as it's proppa fucked and tbh dont know how the previous owner was ever hoping to get it runing a 2K engine.

 

 

 

But then the rain started lol my pal is popping over soon to spend a day on it with me and think we'll get it all done and ready to turn the engine over tbh.

 

 

 

This still to be pulled out through the iner wing to the fuse box area.
