Yes, new project forces the sale of my USB Westy. It's an Early Bay 1971 (tax exempt) Californian import. It had one owner from new before I got it. If you've followed the antics of the USB or VWDRC you will already know the van. It has it's interior out (except the original R&R bed) but I...

My cab headliner (which I believe to be original) got wet over the winter and has gone a bit mouldy. I'm hoping I can just sand it out. Two questions: 1) Is it easy to remove the H'liner? Or is there a trick to it? 2) Is there a recommended varnish or whatever to protect it once I have it...

two things. 1) Bambus parcel shelf. Do I have to shell out the £99+ for one from KK or are there other good quality ones about for less? 2) Kick panels. Where? Thanks Shane

I can't get my avatar to upload into the CP. It's the same one I'm using on the other forums but even when I reduce it to 33% (unable to be seen by the naked eye) it still says it's too big. When I try to look at the forum 'how to' section-it says I don't have permission to look ? Any help...

Brand new 009 dizzy. I bought it at Big Bang to get me home to where I had another waiting. It's been used for 90 minutes and returned to the box. Coolair gave me a 'deal' at £65. I'll pass it on, in new condition, for £50 posted if anyone needs one. Swaps, as always, considered.

About a year ago I saw a short article on a guy that was going to produce a sports steering wheel for buses in one of the mags, that was actually the right size! It took him ages to get them into production and then it took me ages to get my act together to buy one. But I finally got one and I...

quieter the better. Anybody got one hanging about?

Finally managed to get my 71 Westy into the USB by running a 17.7 second quarter at Bug Jam at the weekend :D. Anybody reckon there's a faster VW-powered fully-kitted out westy out there? (and don't say Bubba cause he's got Porker power and nothin but a bed in there).

Can someone check out their indicator relay and tell me which one I need. I have a US 71 westy and the relay is some wierd two pin american (wagner?) one. I need to order a replacement but think I'm chasing the wrong one at the mo. Cheers Shane
