Re: Not a restoration.
Thanks guys.
I just can't seem to stay away.
My LPG plans are on hold until I decide whether I'll use the van as my daily or use the wife's car or get something else.
Plenty of time to make those decisions later.
I'm keeping the van though, The dog and I will get plenty of use out of it.

Re: Not a restoration.
Dogs are good for that too, especially if they like the van. Keep busy but cut yourself some slack too. I’m not sure why but Zen and the Art of... and the concept of quality comes to mind.

Re: Not a restoration.
Zen and the art of van maintenance perhaps Roger?
My dash clock came today so as I had nothing better to do, it's in.
I might do something better with the buttons if I find I need access to them, but they're fine for now.
Current draw is tiny, 0.1mA or so.
I added a 22k resistor on series with the backlight as it was way too bright.
