I suppose I don't have to, but doubt if I'll get enough money to get another one. I will probably have to go down the Beetle road at a later date.

Unfortunately I have to sell my bus on shitty Ebay as I have to drum up a deposit for a house. :sad0049: I've enjoyed some of of the club discounts and group buys over the years, especially with Gene Berg (once you've spoken to them a few times they are very accommodating). Anyway I will...

I had my motorbike stolen from behind my house four weeks ago, and now someone has tried to force open my engine lid on the drive overnight. So basically I want to know what alarm system people have please?. I'm after all the doors and engine hatch, I already have a tracker and pedal locks...

That could be interesting. A bit of extra security as well.

Damn, so it would be an engine out job. I'll add it to my ever growing jobs list. Cheers for the guidance gents.

Hens teeth!, I gave up looking about six years ago, but I suppose you never know what will show up on some parts stall.

Maybe, I have breather fitted from Rocker cover.

Not seen all the bits I'm missing for sale anywhere when I did look, but that was years ago. Can you get the whole lot flaps, thermostat and linkages off the shelf anywhere?

Cheers gents. Thanks Six, I'm down the road in Felbridge, I think I will just stick it up on axel stands and get all 5 powder coated at once.

Hi I'm after a 14" steel wheel. Seen some stupid prices about but all the reasonable ones are miles away. I will be at Brighton breeze if anyone is down there and wanting to sell me one let me know cheers. Brad

Hadn't thought of that, cheers gents I'll see how it pans out. At full warp speed I was worried about losing the roof and boat!

Has anyone managed to get a Kayak mounted on the roof of their Westy? :shock:

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking. I done the side that was a bit rough, left off the washer, gaskets facing the gaiter seemed more likely to me. A messy shit job as three torx heads were stripped. And worse of all the van is still making unhealthy noises! not a happy bunny, I'll check the...
