Time for a bump - the van is safe and warm in the garage as winter approaches.

Ok, so I am not getting very much interest in my van so I have now dropped the price to less than I actually paid for it - and lets not even talk about how much I subsequently spent on the new engine, gear box, rear seat belts, tow bar, etc. Karl

Just a quick note to say that this bus is still for sale! Regards, Karl

Time for a bump for anyone that is thinking of buying a new (sic) camper for the coming season.

Ok, so in the hope of selling van this before winter sets in I've dropped the price by £1k. It is all wrapped up snug in a garage, but I am keen to use the garage for another car! Regards, Karl

Mine is still looking for a good home if you're after a good 'un. Karl

New month, time for a bump. Karl

Could really do with selling this - price reduced!

Not sure where the air shocks came from, Matt Keane installed them before I bought it. It has a compressor and tank in the left side of the engine bay, and the front and rears are raised / lowered independently from switches and pressure gauges below the dash. It is never rock hard even when...

Time for another bump!

Time for an Easter bump!

The belt came from Tim at Roadhouse Retro when he did the conversion. Give him a call, I'm sure he'll be happy to tell you where he sourced it from. Regards, Karl

Bump!

Pete - Many thanks for the kind words. The frustrating thing is that I know that if I ever have the room for another camper I'm unlikely to find one that would quite live up to this! Gotta keep those kids safe! I just love the way that Tim (Roadhouse Retro) was able to build them in without...

After a short but glorious spell as the custodian of this excellent van it is reluctantly up for sale. I now only have one useable garage space, and unfortunately, it is the van that is going to have to make room! Before I bought the van it was a pretty well known on the VW scene featuring in...

Just done this mod myself - excellent instructions Doris. It all works a treat, I surprised myself with how neat and tidy it all looks! Many thanks, Karl

That sounds like an excellent idea! If you get anywhere with it I would be very interested to hear more about it. Karl

That's probably my preferred option at the moment, but I'd need to make sure that it was well boxed in somehow so that there is no change of an accidental short as things are chucked under the seat for storage. Cheers, Karl

Yep, I get that, but I figured that if I am going to start looking at sorting electrics out to power an electric fridge / cool box, etc. then it would make sense to do leisure battery electrics at the same time and add a zig unit or similar. :idea: Cheers, Karl

Do you have any pictures of how the two stalks fit? With the plastic moulding around the indicator stalk, if that stalk isn't replaced I can't see where the other stalk would fit! Does yours have a different moulding around the steering column? Karl
