My Quarantine Project
I haven't been tinkering with lego, but I have been tinkering.
This is a 1996 e350 with the 460 (v8 7.5L), extended passenger van. I've been working on it since march 2020 intermittently. I don't have a garage, so it's all outside.
It was cheap and had/has quite a few problems.
Mechanical fixes I've done so far include:
Front brake replacement
front strut replacement
fluids changed over
vacuum line replaced
exhaust manifold bolts replaced exhaust manifolds resurfaced
passenger window motor replaced and regrounded
sway bar installed
other front suspension replaced
new tires and alignment (but I paid a shop to do that)
I'm sure I'm missing 10 things
non mechanical things:
backup cam installed
battery isolater with house battery installed
floor installed - 1/2 rigid foam with 1/2" plywood with vinyl flooring
an overengineered and poorly executed futon (on the right)
cedar plank (1/4") halfway installed on the roof
one window covered up (on right)
roof vent fan installed
sound deadening in doors
I'm also in school again lol
