    Barn find!!

    She runs! New battery and started no problem once the fuel got to the carbs. Tyres pumped up, lights checked, only the horn isn't working, so looks like an MOT attempt on Friday :)

    Barn find!!

    Think I saw the same front rack on a split once but I guess they weren't that popular as they aren't that big. Hope that was Haveacampers Dormobile thread and not mine!!!! Mines never been welded ;) Edit: although I think it might need a little bit this year :(

    Barn find!!

    I believe the roof racks were bought from Dormobile at the time the conversion was performed, Original owner bought the bus from vw then took it straight to Dormobile to be converted. Had a quick look at the Dormobile brochure and it mentions a roof rack but isn't specific about front/rear...

    Barn find!!

    I am :( Was gonna say I'd turned to the late bays as an excuse, but think having a crack habit would be easier to explain ;)

    Barn find!!

    Gonna start with the basics, pump the tyres up and recharge the battery then see how (if) it goes. Good to be back :)

    Cherished Insurance

    Changed my address with them, bus is staying in exactly the same location on the farm I used to live on even though my address changed, they cancelled my policy and gave me 7 days to return my insurance certificate as they wouldn't cover my new postcode.
