sup from Austin

Just popped in to this is a crazy nice build with nearly every exact upgrade I would look for. I paid almost this much for a bone stock 96 Active World (admittedly, I probably forked up..) in 2021. Please, please someone jump on this. You will spend this much or more to build this out from a...

In case it's still needed.. if you want to stay JDM, Broadway mirrors are pretty rad and have quite a view options. I love mine.

Nice, thanks. I'll keep it in mind if the guys at Disoriented don't work out

I know, right haha. I trust the guy that sent me to them but yeah very curious what they are going to charge..

Came across two - one in Pflugerville and one in Hutto - and bringing it in to Disoriented next week. They were super nice and didn't bat an eye at the mention of a Delica. Work and cost TBD. Disoriented Autoworks Long's Automotive

Extremely good point. Would rather that than they bungle something and leave me with a huge bill and still no van. Are diesels really that much harder to work on? Showing my complete noob credentials. Admittedly I've only ever owned gassers that I have done nothing but oil changes on...

Yeah that makes sense. Mostly mad that Steel advertises wanting to work on your vintage JDM vehicle but as soon as you say diesel van they quietly show you the door.

Theoretically I'm with you. And I do have some wrenches. And I have done basic work on it. But as my only car and some weird shit happening all the sudden, I just don't have the luxury to have it busted in my apt driveway for a month and would gladly pay for someone with 8x the experience to do...

Oof, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'll keep poking around here and hopefully doesn't come to that.. Can anyone explain why mechanics who work on old shitboxes from 1940 to today hear 90s diesel JDM van and go HELL NO? I'm genuinely curious. I got laughed off the phone 3 times today. It can't be...

Any Austin/DFW Delicas know of a shop that'll work on them? Got a no from Rising Sun, Steel Classic Auto and The Landcruiser Specialist..

Bless, thanks

Dang, I missed this.. both mine are cracked and would love to have replaced them despite the fact that Austin has seen 3.5 sweet hot minutes of rain in the last 2+ years. If anybody ever wants to do another order.. hit those DMs.

Got that triple hitch installed. Took less than an hour!

Ok, wait that RC car is pretty cool.. Kinda want to grab one and repaint it in my Active World trim. Sidenote: the movie is GOOD. Totally had zero expectations of it being even anything and then the Delica was the cherry on top.
