Re: Roll Over in Oregon

I didn't mind the scrapes as much as the wind whistling in through the top of the drivers side door frame. Needed to be realigned to keep the rain out also. Reece at Eagle Collision here in PoCo did an A+ job of fixing her up. Not so much a panic when it happened either, slo-mo and very gentle reall...

Re: Roll Over in Oregon

I have to stress that it was a miraculously "soft" landing. The mirror simply folded over, I'm amazed that the window rain/wind deflector thingamajig didn't get damaged, now that's amazing! Here are a few pix I took in Yuma once we arrived plus one of Mike from Art's in Ontario. http://i22...

Re: Roll Over in Oregon

Yes, it was quite miraculous. In fact it ended up being quite a soft roll over. Everything went in slow motion as I'm sure anyone out there who has ever rolled can attest. We were quite fortunate that the snow plough had pushed the snow to the centre median and not off to the side. These vans are fo...

FRONT END ALIGNMENT SPECS?

Greetings to all!

The good news is that my Deli is almost done at the body shop. Unfortunately, the shop doesn't have the alignment specs for the van.

It's a '92 Delica Exceed Starwagon. Does anyone out there have this information?

Many thanks.

SIDE MOULDING

Finally!

Yoko's being worked on Monday, (after the roll in the mountains) and my bodyshop guy is having a hard time sourcing the side moulding strip that runs along the length of the body on the drivers side. My Delica is white.

ANYBODY?

Thanks for your input everyone.

He told me to clean my battery posts and connectors and give it another go. I took some steel wool...

Anyway, we are currently in Yuma, Arizona, banged up a bit, dented, scratched with a leaking and misaligne...
