Hi everyone, sorry no update for a while, I've been working on my beetle trying to get it through the MOT. Anyway I'll be back on the crossover soon.

The lady I got the bus from came by with a few parts she found in the garage, she has got more that I will get as and when she finds them.

Managed to get a couple of hours on the crossover yesterday, got the drivers step done and a coat of cold zinc on, I will be doing all the final bodywork when all the repairs are complete, check out the previous 'repair' to the floor :roll: it looks solid but I think I'll cut it out anyway...

Hey Rob, have you got a pic of your bus, I looked through the pages but couldn't see your name. I'm new to the forum so theres probably a better way of finding it, I just dont know what it is. Anyway I would like to see your bay, cheers, Dan

Thanks dude, I'm loving your bus,

Here's a few pics of my late bay beam raised hack, it's starting to look a bit early bayish, but as they say 'Imitation is the highest form of flattery'. I know it wont be everyone's cup of tea, but I love it.

Thanks for the help with the paint colour guys, I totally forgot about the M code plate :roll: Yes it is a project, but compared with my last one, this one is almost factory fresh. Hopefully more progress pics in a day or two.

Hi everyone, I said hello in the general section but I will say it again here. Hello. Ive been lurking on Earlybay for about three years since getting my first VW, a 73 late bay, which I've beam raised, narrowed, and generally hacked up. Late last year I got a 71 beetle, which as soon as it gets...

Hi all, My name is Dan. I live and work in Cornwall and this is the first forum I've joined. I've been lurking on EarlyBay for about three years since getting my first bay, but as it is a late bay I thought I might be shunned :) Its pretty cool though, Narrow beam, big beam raise, etc, I can...
