Looks nothing like Bradford (England) to me 🤣

Skill 👍

🙈 I know Mike, genuine schoolboy error, and after spending all that time on the front end too 🤣. I had a serious word with myself and as a punishment have been rolling around under the van this afternoon fitting a new accelerator cable 👍

Winnie passed 👍 … after I’d been home and adjusted the rear shoes 🤣🙈. That’s why it’s good to get it on the rollers I guess. No other advisories, happy days 👍

Early start for Winnie’s MOT tomorrow down at Wilson’s Garage in Rhuddlan. Great place, real old school VW Mechanics. Did an oil change, so thought I’d check the sender as I was seeing too great a difference between gauge and 123 dizzy temp value. Looks as though I was right, 100 deg C at...

It’s Winnie’s MOT time again next week, blimey that comes round quick. 2 Advisories from last year:- Slight leak on steering box output, which I sorted straight after by fitting the spare box I’d previously refurbed. Front brake lines and tbf they were in need of replacing, but after I’d...

Westway has a good ZDDP level 👍

I have the same set up as you and have been using Westway 20w50 for a while now without any problems 👍 As Ozzie rightly points out, regular changes are the key 👍

It looks as though they’re just different symbols for what the later models have. Sidelights and Oil That’s my guess anyway 🤣👍

Brilliant 👍

I have the same set up as Ben with 4 straps. They work really well, provided you remember to lower the roof 🤣 unlike I did on a 7 mile jaunt to Tenby South Beach last year 🙈

Don’t use spray paint Ozzie 🤣 … just saying 🙈😵‍💫

I didn’t know you could get galv spray paint from Screwfix, I won’t forget that in a hurry 😜

🤣 … sorry, I’m crying laughing here looking at those pics. Glad you had your glasses on Ozzie

@ozziedog I’m envious of the space you’ve got around the van too I’ve gone from this To this … The racks off now, but I still have a height restriction when lifting as the roof slopes front to back 🙈 Next house, bigger garage for sure 👍

Looks great Ozzie 👍 Winnie’s up in the air at the minute too, just renewed the front brake lines before MOT. Same lifting method, but stands further back on the chassis. I have 2 x rubber inserts that go on top of axle stands making a flat (puck like) surface. @Dizzy T2 … I’ll add a pic later 👍

I still get a RFL reminder, recieved it at end of last month, it has the ref number on it to submit RFL online. Get one for my daily too.

I also have the newer vintage speed model. Had it a good few years now, really like it. Here’s mine in 1st gear with handbrake on. It has a nice wide H unlike the very narrow Empi.

I have workshop envy 👍

Great pics Ben, welcome to the forum 👍
