Thanks for your informative responses. I cannot say that I have checked/changed fuel hoses during my ownership, so perhaps as you suggest Clem the recent work was just just final straw and they were about to go anyway. I have just checked the garage/van again, having been out all day, and...

Hi all, I wonder if you can provide some suggestions. I have owned my crew cab for over 10 yrs, and in all that time I have not had any fuel leak (that I am aware of). Recently, I dropped the van into a garage to get a disk brake conversion on front, and also electronic ignition fitted. When...

Absolutely lovely combo, alas I only have one garage so struggling to think where I would store the tear drop. There's no mention of hob/cooker, is that in one of units behind front seats?

I have a '68 crew cab. Feel free to PM me to find out more and I can send pics.

I may be interested in selling, though I haven't really thought of a price yet. Only considering because I have seen a camper on here that I am interested in. If you're interested let me know, and I can PM you some more pics, but mainly just ones I have from an article when it was in VW C&C a...

Hi Not sure what type you are thinking of ordering, but I ordered these earlier in the year to replace my front ones and they were a good fit. I did order new clips & bungs to fit them tho. http://www.justkampers.com/beige-front-door-cards-beige-vw-t2-bay-1967-1979.html

Well congrats for yesterday Clem, I guess this is going to a regular occurrence going forward for many folks here! And yes, well spotted a7gay, it was taken at Stockton Park during last years Vintage Nostalgia Festival, were you there? Great weekend is it not.

My crew cab is 50 today so thought I would include pic to share. Nearly as old as me but probably in much better shape! And coincidently my Dad is also 90 today, so Happy Birthdays all round.

Thanks for that vote of confidence Moseley, good to hear. For your info, Newton Commercial do pvc backing sheets to place onto the door card to help the water resistance, so that may be an alternative as you will have to take the door card off anyway to pva it. It gives you another option...

Can I resurrect this question, rather than start a new topic? Has anyone used the JK door cards, and if so are they okay? I am looking for a pair for my crew cab, and notice that the JK ones are £90, whereas the Newton Commercial ones are £167 ...

I believe this may be what you are after. I need to do exactly the same. http://www.newtoncomm.co.uk/cars/vw-camper-van/model-130/panels/5283-vw-t2-pvc-inner-door-liners/

As with all comments above, many thanks for all your hard work in keeping this excellent forum alive. Tho not a prolific poster, I am a regular visitor/reader here and I was definitely missing it.

Challenge accepted ;)

Wow, I love that cargo netting set up, looks very practical. And right now I am entertaining going back to a camper, and there is a lovely Early tin top which I like the look of, but I was concerned about it's practicalities. If I did go down that road then I might be copying that cargo net idea.

Relative newbie, but still here after 4 yrs. (Did have a '74 camper for 15 yrs before tho.) But toying with idea of selling, only to go back to an (early) camper from a crew cab!
