Hi everyone. I'm looking for a good guy that knows what he's doing for a welding job to my 1970 van. I'm on the Oxon/Warwickshire border near Chipping Norton. Thanks in advance, Shaun.

Hi people, I'm looking to replace the complete front arch on my 1970 bus and there seems to be a few makes now all with differing prices. SSP, Klokkerhom, Wolfsberg west, European union, VW and that's just from Heritage. Can anyone recomend one for the best fit/quality ect? Many thanks

Link doesn't work I'm afraid :(

Doesn't that rely on your own linkage being in good/semi good condition though?

Okay so I pulled the cable though a bit as it's probably the wrong one for the van. Once I did this the height of the pedal was correct but the springs on the carbs weren't shutting off quickly enough so I've put double springs on them and now they return fine. Any more trouble and I'll put a...
