Our 1971 early bay camper van, recently restored including a full repaint, engine rebuild 2000 miles ago and retrim in leather - £21,495 ono no px thank. situated in the midlands near M6 J3 The camper is a Dormobile conversion with the side tilting pop top. The top has been refurbished...

I would love you to post the progress on YouTube!

Wonderful project! I have an i3s on lease and we are restoring our 71 too. I can't wait to see your progress with the conversion. As regards trimming seats I would budget £1500 for a nice job in leather akin to the one on the i3 FB group. My brother in law is a trimmer.

gonna get the bum up and have a look possibly tonight, or later this week/weekend, its a little higher than the pic as I've wound the grub screws up full, but still easily clonkable by bouncing on the rear (and driving of course). I reckon I need to rotate the plate by a spline. there's no...

Thanks @ozziedog, we have severe restrictions on garage door height otherwise I wouldnt be lowering at all right now. That said I intend to lift him up a bit anyway to try to lose the clonking. There were no stops on the original (swiss cheese) beam either.

Hi, sorry I should've introduced myself here prior to posting previously. We bought our 1971 Dormy 2 months ago from the eBay. it needs some love but was owned by the last owner for 17 years! Plans are afoot to derust and sympathetically restore and modify her into our family camper, ideal for...
