    Help!!! Engine Won't idle!

    Has it been sat a while? I had the same problem, ran it a few miles and it was fine.

    Can I replace the barrel

    I’ve got this rear hatch handle with no locking mech. My van has a cheap (looking, not by price) black handle currently fitted. Can I get a replacement mech for the OG one or would the mech out of the black one transfer over ok. That’s if it comes apart. Cheers

    Rocker gaskets

    I just bought some of these. Turned up within 48hrs. stupidly I didn’t read the add and bought 2 packs, so now have 8 gaskets. Cheap enough though so shouldn’t need to buy any for the rest of my life

    Restore or replace interior

    I am with Ozzie. I had a trashed Dormy interior. Ripped it out. Fitted a Rust Lee bed and a small unit with smog cooker. I don’t cook in the van but it’s good for making a brew in the morning. Everything else I do outside.

    Who elses bus then ?

    That’s it. Love the patina and stance. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder some may think it’s plain but there is just that something that I think looks cool

    Who elses bus then ?

    A while ago there was a chap called John the. Horse. I always thought his bus was cool. I’ve tried to find a photo. As far as I am aware it’s been sold on and he left the site

    Winter work thread

    Forgot to add the door had 3mm of filler and someone had glued a patch on the base. Also the framing on the inside of the door was also glued on. All metal now bought a skin from Heritage. Into the arch next dreading it.

    Winter work thread

    So winter work underway. As usual you start something and it just goes deeper and deeper. As I stated I needed to sort a blister on my door. This turned into a complete rebuild. Still cheaper than getting a rust free door JUST. None of this is my work by the way I found a great guy in Bridgend.
