Wanted- Propane hatch/door

tortorelli · 07-21-2009, 05:42 PM

My propane hatch is rusted on my 2000 SMB. Does anyone have an extra or know where I can buy one (sportsmobile wants $50 for an unfinished one).

$50 sounds like a good deal to me...Mine was in pretty bad shape but my buddy and I bought some bondo, paint, clear coat, bondo spreading tools, some rubbing compound stuff, new stainless steel latches and hardware. Then we borrowed a paint gun from my friend. All the stuff cost me way more than $50...If I would have known they were that cheap I would have held off on the course in body work...However, now the thing looks brand new and this was the only janky looking thing on the van. I would just buy it from SMB, take it to a shop and have it sprayed.

Checks out Jack's fuel door project.

You like that? That is actually a new word I picked up from my fire crew this summer. And yes, it is a real word (at least according to the urban dictionary)...eg

We tried to pick up on these girls waiting for the bus, but I was driving my sister's janky 1989 geo metro so we just got clowned instead.

Thanks for the input. The only thing janky on my van is the hatch! (I've got a 2000 as well Veg Hed).
