    Now sold- Beautiful OG Paint 2054cc Savannah Beige Deluxe Ca

    Here is our 1968 early bay. We imported her from the Palm Desert, California, 5 years ago. This is an OG paint, 1 key bus- after looking at several busses in the UK we decided we wanted a van in her original paint and no nasty surprises under a shiny new coat of paint. As you would expect from a...

    Camshaft knowledge

    Hi I've got a Web 218 in by bus with stock ratio rockers (2054 with 044 supermags) C/R 8.5:1 and it is fantastic, such a torquey cam with a nice spread of power to about 5500rpm- great for a bus in my opinion, maybe worth a look- I got mine from Jim at Stateside Tuning. I also had an Engle 110...

    KYB double loop shocks 420/ 265mm. These shocks are virtually brand new, covered around 1000miles.

    rear shocks again!!!

    Hi, I have horseshoe plates on the rear of mine and I used shorter shocks on the back. There is a good guide to custom ride height shock sizing on the machine 7 website. With the horse shoe plates, I calculated the shocks I needed would be the same size as standard FRONT shocks. I used KYB GR2...
