Here we have for sale my beloved 1971 Early Bay VW T2 with a few differences! I bought the van in 2012 in a disassembled state and spent a year putting back together and making improvements along the way! The van has had an engine conversion and now runs a 1Z TDI 90bhp engine from a late Audi...

Hi guys, Got a tap here that's surplus to requirements, microswitched one: It's brand new, was £25 but I ended up getting a different one from a local shop. £14 + Postage? Also got a 1971 loom with fusebox (some fuses, no relays). Honestly it's a bit butchered and covered in a bit of...

HI guys, Can you help me out please! I'm very confused. I want to lower the bay, just a little bit as it sits sooo high at the moment. I only want to go down a couple of inches at the most, we have a radiator under the van between the chassis rails so we need the air flow under there. What's...

One thing tha has always hacked me off about my van is the lack of intermittent wipe, on every other car I drive I can get intermittent wipe (standard) that I can either alter the time between wipes or wipes the screen automatically! So I took action today and with a simple interval timer...

...a bumper iron mounted bike carrier? I'm going to have one made up for me as I want a bike carrier that isn't boot or towbar mounted (as I'm TDI not sure I can add a towbar with my exhaust) and just wondered if anyone else would be interested? Only testing the water at the moment, need to...

Has anyone done it? Do you need to have a late bay one as the roof hole is towards the back of the van? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hi guys, Had anyone ever replaced a Devon roof with a Westfalia one? I assume I'd have to put a late bay one on as the hole for the Devon rood is in the back of the van with nothing over the cab!? Where would I find one? Anywhere apart from looking on eBay periodically? Thanks :)

...and one that was a sort of mat red colour in a services! Was it a show this weekend? I was in a blue Prius that was probably flashing people out the way in the outside lane :lol: :wave: if it was anyone on here!

Is yours a little all over the place too? When I'm sitting idling, the needle vibrates, going round corners I expect it to move about I suppose, if I have the ignition off and put the hazards on the gauge will go from off the end to E with the hazards :lol: Is this pretty normal? Not something...

Hi guys, bought this but the colour didn't go with our van at all, it's never even been fitted so its brand new. Was £40-something when I bought it but ill take £32 plus postage if someone wants it?

hi guys, got a washer bottle in my garage just taking up room, I've converted to a motor setup! Seem to be on ebay for 12.50 upwards... So if anyone wants to give me a tenner for it it'sall yours! Any takers?

Hi guys, I'm after a VGC dash clock holder/surround for my RHD bus. My speedo and fuel gauge are working lovely now but some idiot has cover my clocks surround in bloody overspray! So ideally I just want to transplant my working clocks into a new surround. Anyone selling one? Thanks

Hello lovely people! I'm trying to get my fuel gauge to work. If I connect the left hand side terminal (the one marked +12v as you look at the back of the cluster) up to a 12v supply (from the generator and indicator light shared +12v) and earth the other side to the metal on the cluster, it...

Buy a matching set of either one or both door locks and a matching ignition lock? Or is it possible to buy both and have them both jiggled to work from the same key? The locks and keys on my bus are shocking, can take 10 or so attempts to lock/unlock a door or start it!

I know they are different things but I assume one of a 71' early bay is a dynamo? I've got one in the boot of my car that due to my bus not running a standard engine is no longer petrol powered ;) Is it worth anything or should I take it down the tip for the scrap metal man?

Hi, I'm normally fairly good with automotive electrics but I'm stumped on the horn in my early bay. The horn has two wires going to it, looking at the wiring digram one comes from +12v and one goes to the wire that pokes out the middle of my steering wheel (that should have the horn push...

Hey, Wanting to get my 1.6 gearbox overhauled and fitted with a 2.0 ring and pinion and also a longer 3rd and 4th gear fitted - is there anyone you guys know of other than Bears Motorsport that can do this? Just wanted to see if there is an alternative supplier (I could even deal with fitting...

Cash waiting, anyone? :)

Anything pictured £10 - unless you think it's worth less! It's all untested as it's a clearout from when we received our van. Excludes postage :) Also got: :)
