I want to show off my new baby and the minor renovations and updates I'll be making. She's gorgeous and like most people, struggles to go uphill.
Don't wanna be here? Send us removal request.

Is my baby in good condition? Yes. However, be aware that if you buy any car before 1996, that even the FUCKING DEALERSHIP may turn you away if your check engine light it on because their scanners only go to 1996.
#I found a guy willing to try!#istg even the guy who was a fucking mechanic during 1994 said fuck no not gonna do it#also that mechanic shop sucked imo wirh communicating fucking anything to me

Priorities:
Get her checked out by a mechanic (repeat as necessary)
Add cup holders to the front seat area.
Figure out spare tire situation.
Add things like my sleeping bag, blankets, pillows, dog area, some tools, etc.
Get battery, heater, a/c, air filter, lighting, etc. all separate from the van's battery.
Get a projector and white sheet(?) to make a movie theatre.
Get and install solar panels. (This is a big one)
Get fridge and microwave. Possibly also internet for work, I need to investigate.
Aesthetic updates. Most of her is so gorgeous I don't want to make too many changes, so the changes are primarily maybe replacing some of the torn areas on the side fabric, adding a nice rug or too, add a desk area for my work, blackout curtains, other curtains, adding a bed and some storage, maybe removing one of the two back seats, etc.
#i am heavily influenced by shrimpisbugs and that one vantasy post that i am referencing as i figure out what fits my needs#i've been considering this for a while and now i'm doing it! ahhhh so scary but she's in great condition considering and#i'm already in love#i'm moving next summer and i'm hoping i can avoid paying for registration and inspection until then because step 1 will take time
