Hey Guy’s and Gals, so I introduce to you cousin Eddie the home coming, now since then I’ve done some repairs, not many but I’ll elaborate. Now Ed is ex Australia Post and from the west coast I believe and as it so happens I work at post, have done for ages and so I’m actually torn between...

Yeh but red goes faster, every one knows that hahahaha

I am still digging away at the project and am on the lookout constantly for chassis numbers, we’ll see

Did we get chassis numbers stamped into the chassis anywhere on the bus or did we only get a one silver plate and that’s it?

Yeh good idea, I made a couple good scores today 15 nicker each or 30 au dollar’s each for a grand total of 30 quid.

We’ll do mate, and thank you for the welcome, thus far ? Awesome platform and our pannel van is ex Australia post van hence the colour, is blue the colour of Royal Mail in the UK?

Hey neilswheels, I’ll definitely keep updating this thread for sure. So my 71 has discs on the front and was the first for discs and that’s good but not to muddy the waters even more the 1972 bus upgraded the clippers to what I assume to a better design but different bolts pattern I am thinking...

Yeh I knew it was a couple of bucks but geeeeez Louise that’s nuts 🌰 that’s about 700 bananas here in Australia shitballs didn’t think it was that bad

Yeh I’d seen em last week on there as well and i do want me some as well

All the best Kevin, a pickie I’d be nice, I threw the gauntlet to my cobbers and made the mistake but I do have to come good on it, my 1971 I got in late November last year and I made the statement “ registered and driving in one year, now six months have gone, oh dear. 🤣

No your right Bosch is NOT always the answer I agree but if I’ve got it canga, moolah or the dosh? Then it’s Bosch for me but again I don’t always have the bank balance for it all the time so yeh I agree

Nice one man, (neilswheels) the CSP option would be cool if you could buy just the hub extension with the new stud pattern but a single cast would be a better option but I prefer to use my original calliper and baaaaaaam you found it man, The wheel bearings are the same, we actually might have a...

Ozziedog, you said it alright, all the subframes are killer and the roof gutters are awesome 😎 only a bit of cosmetic damage around the usual perimeter areas and the fact that it was stripped but a cobber came through with a donor 73 for missing parts and alls good

EMPI actually make something like 5-6 differing wide 5 disc’s some are for ball joint front ends and yeh I have read some are for beetles but I’m sure someone will know something just a matter of time I’m hoping, hadn’t looked at EBay nice pick up Ozziedog
