Well done on the MOT! Also interested in the above - I need a set!

The beetle saved my bacon when my bus died up at the unit! I am forever grateful! Though you do need to get back on the bus! FIngers crossed for MOT time.

Just had a look online catfish style but can't find anything! Hope she's not ripped you off!

As above, it'll leak if they're not all done up. You can either remove the stud carefully or drill and tap for an M8 repair stud - they step down to M6 so you can still use the normal sump plate etc.

Lovely bus! Can't wait to see more.

Give it a clean out and blow the jets through. There's a guide for setting the choke here: http://www.vw-resource.com/choke2.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; When I bought my turn key engine, the guy I got it from advised me that the choke wasn't working - I start it by...

Sure you'll find a solid import cut if you ring around! Looking good so far.

Looks sound now it's all cleaned up! You can un-sack your mate if he's working for nowt! haha.

I had the same problem, new relay sorted it. Didn't know I could just hide the switch but feel glad it's working!

I used to work with a painter - he ended up refusing classic jobs because they were pretty much impossible to price - he found himself either upsetting people or losing money. The amount of hidden horrors was ridiculous. That being said, I think up north we seem to pay alot less for paintwork...

Very cool! Love the colour - worth the extra pennies I'd say!

That doesn't look too bad - not sure what the material is - maybe old filler? Get the grinder on it and clean it up and see how much needs replacing - looks like you could just let in a pretty simple patch/ have someone do it for you? I did the same with my first bus - just remember every bodge...

I've given it a quick fix for now - the wiring was OK but the actual switch seems to be coming apart. It's a single chrome lever version. I've found a couple in the US so will find a few other bits I need and probably get one shipped over if I cant find one locally.

7 by the looks of things!

Is it stuck together? Tell him to do one... He's been made redundant!! haha.

I had my mam write me a cheque as I don't have a chequebook! It's worth while writing a little cover letter noting everything you've included. Do as much as you can to make their job easy and it'll pay off! I sent an SAE and asked for the title and all the docs I had sent to them to be returned...

Mine's on it's way out - it's starting falling to bits and now when I indicate left I just get a blast of the horn - had to plan my route around only turning right now!

I'll let you know next time I'm heading down the M1 and see if we can sort something out - unless you find a reason to be in Leeds anytime soon and you can come fetch it!

Looks amazing! I might have to come have a look round it when I'm going down the M1 sometime!

Lee I might have to come see you after summer is done with my bus for a bit of treatment like you gave your last one! I've got some rough patches that I need sorting, but made to look a bit rough again! I don't trust anyone locally as far as I can piss and you seem to have done some quality...
