Now that looks great. You put a couple extra bucks in Ben's allowance this week. When Bill comes by tell him Cherie and say "HI".

I dont get an allowance. As mom and dad say "I get a roof over my head and all I can eat"

Hmmm, seems like I heard that one around 45 years ago! Still holds true today.

Congrats on the snowshoe racing! State champion!? Good on ya! Your folks must be feeding you right!

Yeah, Ben is very fast on snowshoes! If we would have been able to afford the trip to Wisconsin last February, he would have been the US Champion in his age group.

Here are the vent visor and hitch install pics.







The hitch was delivered today! Thanks Snapple and Lynne.

Nice looking van.

What's the plans?

Thinking of any names yet?

Thanks skippy!

Adding a Snowbear snowplow. Had to make a plow mount...



Improved on the manufacturers design by making it with 1/4" angle and adding 2 support pieces that bolt to the bottom of the front cross member.

Also started on the Taurus fan install. Using the frame and mount part of the original shroud and will make a cover for the open section of the radiator. This is where the 2 speed Hayden model 3654 control and 70 amp relay will go.

I like the upside down milk crate with the board on top. I have one just like it.

[LiftedAWDAstro]

Thanks! I actually made that for our dog Cole. He needed an extra step to get into the back of the truck for camping...now he needs a ramp! LOL So it doubles as a step for me.
