Buckys Mk4 C20XE Van

hey guys thought id just start a new thread as my other threads were for my other vans.
i sold the mk3 v6 for £1900, and bought this mk4 redtop for £2000, its totally standard apart from the engine and a mix match of cali front springs/nova rears.
hopefully i will be going for GSI front, Irmscher rear, coupe skirts, 18" penta wheels, Vectra GSI brakes and a few little touches.
havent managed to get many pictures yet, this is the oonly one worth uploading

Re: Buckys Mk4 C20XE Van

I like, always thought a mk4 van could look quite good if done right, any pics of the rest of it?

Re: Buckys Mk4 C20XE Van

Looks nice, I like the white rocker cover really sets the bay off. Would also like to see more pics of the rest.

Nice choice off wheels, Im going to be on the look out for some.

Re: Buckys Mk4 C20XE Van

yes this os the one that mark has had for nearly two years, in fact when he was putting the xe in my red van we were 'borrowing' parts off this van lol.
heres a few updates:
5stud conversion on now:

skirts bumpstrips door handles painted:

bonnet extension:

opc rear lamps, front bumper chopped out, black roof lining, black interior a pillars, cover inside rear in expanding foam and carpet to reduce panel rattle, 2x 15" subs in back.
still havent fitted the 18" penta's as i cant afford to replace the tyres yet.
