Ahead of IMM I've been tinkering with the van, fitted a new pair of rear bumpers then turned my attention to the engine. To cut a long story short, I have binned the HIF44 carb as I couldn't get the engine to run right.... In place is a HS4 carb with a AAA meddle and to be honest it's a HUGE improvement. I would champion the HS4 carb, the throttle response is amazing now, engine note is perfect..

Fitted my new original number plates today
Where did you get the plates from please, I've searched online and can't find anything. It's a great looking van, a credit to you.

12" steels look for them off something like old vw beetles not sure if they will have the right stub pattern though.
I dont think they ever did 12" steelies specially for minis.

Where can I get this done? I'm guessing I'm going to need 2 sets of steels to make one set of banded wheels

Normal just one set mate.
You cut the rim out then add metal to make them wider

Yeh just some normal steels, and make them wider, there are few companys out there that do this, its very big on the vw scene so maybe contact one of these companys and see what they can do for you but think they looks so nice done :)
