So, here it is, My new 1982 Hiace Van.... Bought off trade me with a blown motor, 1 con rod out the side of the block. Was located in Takaka, so had to make a massive effort to get it over to here in Wellington..... had to get it towed to a frieght company, then frieghted over the Takaka Hill, to the Straight shippin Company, who chucked it on the Kent, and got it shippped over to wellington for Sunday. So I got the work truck and the trailer and went and piced it up with my man Pies. Well, I am very very happy, becasue I didnt really know what to expect, and the price of the van was pretty low, Im totally stoked with how rust free it is. It has a bit of a dent in the sliding door, and it doesnt close mint, But I will sort that, or find a replacement one.. So I guess the most stand out thing about the van is the paint........ yes, it is white, white with Yellow Diasys!!!! HIPPY VAN! Its pretty cool, did come with a bed base in the back aswell, for extra Peow Peow. Next is the motor....... thought it was going to be some sort of Y sereis, because thats what the person i bought it off sisters boy friend Said... So ait Turns out is 12R Powered............. thats a whole 1600cc of mega r power. So wont be putting one of those back in. Anyway, the short list. 1. Replace motor, possibly with a 22r (we will see Cam) 2. Fix up body. 3. Paint the thing back to Factory White/ 4. Get a Wof 5. Lower The Van 6. Mack out the inside 7. and er.... Oh yeah, Black steelies and White walls with the Chrome Center Caps! Long term Plan, 1. Fit a 1kzte Desiel Turbo motor. 2. get Some mean sounds 3. Chrome the Bumpers Anyway, heres some pics for a good bit of Laughing! MEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Allan Discussion: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/21360-seedy-als-ace-hiace/?hl=hiace
