Its been on a few occassions now that I've been thinking how it would be to take out the passenger seat and have the passenger door as the main entrance into the van.
It's now at least 3 weeks stuck this time waiting on a gearbox, and if I had all my tools and funds, I would have already made a full conversion in that time. But no!
To take out the seat required minimum tools, but I have made a cutting list and a plan to put in a 23cm raised floor for when that's possible. I've got a buyer for silver on the 7th sept and Ill see if he will buy all of it. The more time I spend here, the more money it costs for food and I have no way of getting and physical income where I am at the moment.
Im chuffed with how it looks and the decision was good. Maybe people are thinking that I'm never going to have passengers again because theres no seats, but here in México nobody gives a fuck how many people or how they are sitting in a vehicle hahah
Yeh, this is my wardrobe space I guess...
Oh yes. MICE. I have a mouse problem which seems to not end. There was one living in the van from the countryside and I got a bag of poison pellets thinking it would solve the problem. Well, the first lot of pellets were eaten and I thought it was finished. I put more down as I wanted to see if it got eaten, and it did!
A bag was used of pellets, all gone. I got some more, these big blue things, and within an hour there was one already been nibbled on!
There were four of these huge blue ones yesterday and already they are gone.
I think Im feeding the mouse population of the area im in, and a constant flow is comming to munch out in the van
I will try and put the pellets outside, under the van maybe and see if that helps.
Just 4 bolts and the seat came out easy. Then it was the base remaining. At this stage, I got the idea wondering about yrying to get a different drivers seat to fit in the future, one the swivels around so it could be intergrated into the back as furniture as well.
The seat belt wont be needed again and if it was to be an entrace, it was in the way! The seatbelt and rhe seat I will go sell at the scrap yard.
I wonder when this was put in there, the use by date is 2023, maybe its from when the car was new.
.... I will be staying here and selling metal and buy tools and doing a conversion on the van, atleast to put a floor in with storage space underneath - all by the time i got the gearbox and the new papers for a car, then get it registered.
