    I spent 4 years finding the Van, and have only been looking for parts for less than a year but haven't had any luck getting a non locking painted petrol cap, correct date coded 308, rear tail light with excellent chrome trims, same front bumper as others, black centre console have bought a rare spares copy for now, and many more parts on the list but moving from WA to SA this month will help.

    I will settle for something with the right date code well before 10 years, but then I will always keep a look out for the right one

    I will drop you a line when I get back to SA, should be in about 3 weeks. I will be living northern suburbs in Golden Grove temporarily until I can find a place.

    I would bring you some nice GTS wheels if I could find any here, the ones on my van I got shipped here from NSW.

    Cheers
    Paul
