    Spring Valley Bus meets Corvair

    seeing as the sun was shining I took the van to Swindon on Saturday for a meet up with friends to walk the dog, nice 80 mile round trip, was running late on the way and had to blast along the M4 at a steady 70 which I don’t normally do but it does run fantastically well, plenty of torque for...

    An inspection calls…

    Also to help you, buy from someone who has owned the vehicle a long time, they are more likely to be honest about the good and bad points. Be careful of fresh paint as it normally covers a whole load of problems that will appear in 6months time, in fact the scruffier the paint is the more you...

    Outside Gas shower.. ideas.

    I like the idea of these solar pressurised containers to hang on the gutter, much more reliable in continental Europe but still effective using nothing more than the sun...

    Fuel lines

    Thanks for the input, I would love to fit some solid lines in the engine bay and make the whole job look neater but not sure I have the tools, skill or patients in all honesty! I think I must have used 6mm last time to connect to the carbs because they always leak unless I use a sealant with...

    Fuel lines

    Anyone changed their fuel lines recently, mine have been on for around 9 years but look in great shape, but I have a plastic filter under the tank I need to replace so thinking of doing it all. Trouble is I have a Huco pump, in-line metal filter, fuel cut-off valve, Tee-piece to supply both...

    CB Radio

    We tested these rigs on Saturday and managed to get 2miles of range, this is in a suburban area in Bristol rather than on a straight motorway so thought that was pretty good. Certainly more than enough for a roadtrip convoy

    Camping heat, gas or diesel????

    I've got a Propex which I fitted around 15years ago, barely ever use it, when we camp early in the season as we did Easter this year when we had snow, I booked electric hook-up and used a small oil filled radiator that is silent and did the job perfectly, Can count on one hand the number of...

    How far do your cab doors open?

    Yea I replaced both doors, the ‘68s didn’t go on, one is a wall decoration in my studio and the other went up to Adam & Hannah to help their van resto. Interestingly the interior construction of the near side door (the one that opens further differs from the offside one that was the same as the...

    Over riders, yes?, or no?

    Mine came with over riders but I’ve taken them off for delux trim but I’d happily swap back as I think they look cool
