She looks fierce doesn't she...the dog I mean...the fluffier, less likely to bite, one of the two ;)

I'm a 'lady' owner....ahem... :lol: if you disregard the potty mouth, permanently dirty fingernails and complete lack of grace!! I'll have a go at pretty much anything to do with my bus which, despite having never driven or even started up yet :roll: , I completely LOVE :D

Thank you for the replies :) Araon - that's how I want it to look! Have you just left those 'sausage' shaped slots (under the air vent) open? 55ovalcharlie - I looked at VW Heritage but they haven't seemed to have them in stock for ages, Custom and Commercial have been out of stock for ages...

Excellent, thank you, that's what I hoped! Just got to find a fettler and/or filler now... ;)

Hi I had a padded dashboard.......but then I took the padding off because I really like the idea of a metal dash painted the same colour as the outside. I figured as the dash had already been chewed up by someone before me that I didn't have much to lose by having a go :D But now I'm looking at...

Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one!! :D I just didn't want to be a complete girl and say it out loud first ;) I've not even driven mine yet and although the end is nearly in sight I'm pining for even just sitting in the space where the driver's seat should be!! He's at the paint shop...

Like :)

Welcome It's nice to be able to help for a change ;)

Not sure I'm worthy of the title 'computer geek' but I did have the right copy of KYBA right next to me... hth

Thank you, you lot are brilliant :D Wendy

Hi Well, the engine is in and we've got to the 'connect it all back up to make it work' stage. The whole "there are just 4 bolts holding it in' line is wearing a bit thin now as it turns out it's a bit more tricky than that when you're relying on dodgy Haynes manual pics :roll: Anyhoo, I'm...

Awesome :) Thanks Paul, gonna go try it now.

Help. I have a rear engine mount conversion kit to fit my "H" engine which needs to be attached to the oil pump installation studs. The kit comes with a Blanchard ground cover plate and new studs but there doesn't appear to be a way of removing the existing ones. This is the kit I bought...

That's what I need!!! Thanks Moler :D

Errrrrmmm So now I know that it just has to fit on that central mount bracket does anyone have a picture of what it should look like when it is in position? Or can anyone tell me what bit I need to buy to make it fit? Nothing I've found seems to be the right thing but, that said, I don't have...

Brilliant Thank you very much :)

Hi I've got a '71 Deluxe and have got to the stage where I can put in the gear box and engine but I can't see what/how/where supports the gearbox :( I should probs point out that the gearbox is from a '73, will it even fit?? I spoke to VW Heritage who said I need a cradle and they told me to...

I got a 1973 pop top in need of quite a bit of love :) I took all the bits off it while I was waiting for it to go to the welders but on further inspection it needed more than I could afford to pay for :( Classic case of falling for a van on fleabay :lol: So I got myself an imported early...

Does it have to be an early bay? and how much of a project ;) Wendy

pm'd you :)
