As trinket said above, use 6mm ply in the recess area to bring it up level, then 9mm on top of that to cover the whole floor. I used a spare roll of lining wallpaper to get the shape right before actually cutting the board. Unfortunately due to the sheet size you can buy 8' x 4' ,it has to be...

Sorry 69hank, that would have been me. List re-added up to the point I joined, the others between my posts need to add themselves. I have to go off and give myself a talking too for duplicating your name :-) 1. 67westy - Westy box 2. Matt Maz 3. Resto-raider 4. Burt 5. 1969hank - Westy Box 6...

That is a clean install ASH. How does the oil enter your full flow system from the standard oil system? Ive seen the option for a take between the standard cooler and block, but that's about £70 and needs mods. Others I've seen are one that comes off the oil pump and another option seems to be...

Thanks for the advice Alex and Ash. Hadn't found those two threads. Looks like location of choice is under the battery tray, one question though; Does the oil cooler not hang down dangerously far? Cant tell if its lower than the exhaust/bumper mounts, sump. So I need: a take off plate for...

Whilst trying to sort out issues with my new engine build, I happened to meet a chappy who builds air cooled engines to put in Porsche replicas. He recommended that with a 1776 running twin 34 ICT's etc he would not run it unless it had an external oil cooler. Never got to chat to him for long...

Tickets now sold. Make them feel welcome like I know you will :D Will still come Saturday for a browse and a chat. Please close the post.

Should have kept the post just about the tickets, my fault, the engine is a whole bigger story :roll: Tickets are going on eBay at 3pm as need to let the auction run and have time to send. :?

Geordie has first dibs, have replied to the pm and still sitting in my outbox. Once I get a response either way I will let you know. thanks for the interest.

have you tried buying direct from EIS in the states, that's where I got mine, and even with import to the UK wored out cheaper than getting them from here. http://www.eisparts.com/241877306/Cable%2C+Sun+Roof%2C++Bus+%27+68+-+%27+79%2C+Right%2CNew~%21.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return...

Friday bump :msn4:

thank you for the offer. I'm still hoping in the back of my mind the engine builders come good. I'm off all next week and happy to put miles on it, but need it back working 1st.

true, very true I've held out with my fingers crossed for as long as I could hoping to get the bus back in time. We sold our 'party tent' and only have the one we bought from you. The misses is worried about space, not having the bus to stretch out in when needed.

yeah these things happen, but it'd be crap sat in a focus having breakfast :D

I wish, but not after being messed around like I have. They had the engine 9 weeks (3 weeks machining) during the build they couldn't get the piston rings to fit. I went to have a look measured the pistons and told them they were putting 1641 rings on a 1776. I wasn't sure what engine was in it...

Well with heavy heart, and after seemingly being messed around by the folks building my engine, it looks like we won't be able to make it next weekend. Even if the engine comes back in time I don't want to test/run it in travelling to Malvern. Cant face turning up in the Focus as it just isn't...

I've just took a pair off my bus and gone over to j-tubes. They have little holes in them but nothing major, gave good heat when they were in my bus. I'll take some pics if you're interested

awesome video, although I was worried at the start when it said 73' :msn4:

I'd be up for this. We visit Kingsbury Water Park quite a bit and often thought it would be a great placed for a small meet/show if they were happy to allow overnight camping. They have dedicated caravan area, but nothing like being in an open filed...

same as resto-raidar, bolted em through the bumper mounts, but I di move my overiders out to sit at the same width apart as my rear ones
