    What rear shocks are people running?

    So, the points on my driving licence....

    As above never figured out why insurance companies can use them as a stick to beat you with for 5 years when the issuing authority only deems them to be applicable for 3(maybe 4 )years. Is this not Insurance companies again writing there own paychecks?

One piece did the floor, both sides below the headlining and the tailgate panel and looks far better than peeling vinyl...

    why did you buy your bus ?

    About 5 years ago hitting 40 I decided to have a mid life crisis and wanted an old classic. I was looking at Triumph Heralds, Mk1 Escorts etc. Then we went to St Ives for two weeks. My misses kept asking what all the old campers were driving around. I'd always loved em (anything 60's/70's) but...
