I will be tackling my cambelt and waterpump once the weather has warmed up a tad. I would gladly take a few pic's along the way.

2 Cheap and effective mods and tips.

3 Home builds.

4 Letters
I'm sure some homebuilt features will be in the pipeline, mods and tips have already started and Jimmer has mentioned that a letters page is being assessed earlier in the thread

or how about a 'Flash your dash' section - detailing before and after dashboard refurbs. You know the ones - they start off covered in scratches and mortar, and end up with plush velvet / wood veneer. A 'how to' guide to removing the dash would probably be good too. Also, since everyman and his dog seems to want to do it - a 'how to colour code your bumpers'.
Flash your Dash
It's the little details that make a van, so I'm sure your requests will not fall on deaf ears

Really liked the the first issue , if I do some pics of me draped over my van in my Borats would you consider a centre spread?

Spud
Definitive list you say? Has Steven Tazz not covered that in the technical articals on here somehere? If not let us know on this thread. I think Jimmer may well pass on the Borat thong thing at the moment, but you can send him a pic if you like

3. Insight into various businesses/ conversion company's
4. Daily run vans interesting as well.
Plenty of this stuff in the coming months I'm sure.

I understand an announcement on the future frequency of issues is expected soon. Mark I'm sure you will be pleased to know that the steam is well stockpiled and there is no chance of it running out any time soon

Rest assured there will be plenty for the "hopeless individuals"
