Re: Camping/adventure van

Done very little as I have been down and out for over a month with what I think was an allergic reaction to antibiotics. Joint (then muscle) pain and swelling, long tough road but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel
Be happy to ditch the cane, better than the 2 weeks on crutches.
Anyway , had to get out in the shop and mess around a bit.
thinking about adding louvers to the hood to escape some heat.
Going slow on logging roads usually involving steep incline makes it warm up.
Installing louvers adds complexity since I live in the PNW, I don't want to pour water (rain) into my engine compartment. Might add a tray under the louvers to catch and divert heavy downpours?

Also playing with the crappy center console/ cup holder/ glove box.
Tired of the glove box popping open while on my bumpity road adventures. And the factory cup holders are not deep enough. No more surprises going around corners. LOL

still have to shape and glass the center piece, it will also be nice have more legroom when swing my feet around to walk to the back.

Boring but its all I got. Where is FF when you need him.
