    BRMs on a ‘67 bus

    Took some time to pluck up courage but today but the bullet. And yes they fit! Thanks Sparkwig!

    First time poster with a 69 Devon

    Just read your post and have gone the opposite route, but similar worries now resolved. I needed to replace my tyres having had the bus for nine years and even paid for the tyres. Our garage took ages to fit them and in the meantime I realised getting BRMs to have the van match even more closely...

    BRMs on a ‘67 bus

    It’s taken nine years but I eventually got round to getting a set of BRMs for the bus, a final feature for it to match the one which was nicked all those years ago. I was advised to buy 185.65.15 tyres but having tried it seems to me they won’t fit under the bodywork. A good friend has suggested...

    Insurance

    2008 Calendar

    Not been on for ages and delighted to read this post Terry! My old bus, pre restoration, is March and sneaks in other months as well. Oh, and it was me and the original Mr Earlybay who produced it. Time flies.

    Valuations For Insurance - Dorset

    I use Hegarty for bsurance and they agree a value that you put on it. I upped mine to £15k recently from £13k and only saw a small rise in the premium, which incidentall6 is half what I used to pay! Recommended. No quibbling, run by car fans apparently.

    Cool air

    Big Rich looked me recently, made sense of a dodgy photo I sent, always buy from them. Now using delivery not calling in and have had two parcels arrive quickly as as promised. Plus if you tell them you are an earlbay member you get a 10%/discount!

    Brighton Breeze 2018

    Wish I could take no 20 Steve but I’m now up in Hinderwell, just north of Whitby! One day I’ll get down again, the Breeze being one thing I do miss! I will be displaying Graham L’s sticker as well as the earlybay.com one at Dubs Int Dales though. Just not the same! Enjoy the day.
