<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV> <P>hey Brian,</P> <P>Thanks for the tips. i plan on really paying attention to the details and insulation is top of my list. it would be so nice to have a van that you could hold a conversation with back seat passengers at 70 mph! Like you said, the overhead panels and trim are a concern. i am not looking to go stock since the whole motif has already strayed. what ideas do you have?</P> <P>thanks</P> <P>jason<BR><BR></P></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>From: "Brian T." <NOBLEMAN36@YAHOO.COM> <DIV></DIV>>To: pooncerelli@HOTMAIL.COM <DIV></DIV>>Subject: Westfalia the way YOU want <DIV></DIV>>Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2003 13:23:00 -0700 (PDT) <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Jason, <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>What a great situation! Here is what I would do... <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>clean up EVERYTHING... and then research sound <DIV></DIV>>deadening and insulation. Once I had that all dialed <DIV></DIV>>in I would get all new rubber (assuming you don't <DIV></DIV>>that) and replace all the window and door seals. <DIV></DIV>>After that I would have the donar heater cores <DIV></DIV>>pressure tested and then replace all the hoses and <DIV></DIV>>reinstall the wiring and heater assemblies at the same <DIV></DIV>>time. After that the GL interior would go in. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>About the only caveat would be if I was to stick to <DIV></DIV>>the original overhead panels or put something exotic <DIV></DIV>>in there. There are many great wood veneers out there <DIV></DIV>>that would add a bit of creative distinction to your <DIV></DIV>>very custom camper. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Anyway, I'm envious! <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Brian from Salem <DIV></DIV>>85' Westy weekender "Rusty" <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>__________________________________ <DIV></DIV>>Do you Yahoo!? <DIV></DIV>>Yahoo!
