Ply floor lining from my 71 LHD Westy. Selling my workshop so it has to go and I really don't want to throw it in the skip. It has some staining on it but it is sold.

I know the whole engine builders thing has been covered numerous times but I am thinking of upgrading from my stock 1600tp to something with a little more torque as my family/pets have expanded to the point that I need to tow a trailer :o . I have looked at the VW Engine Company and just...

Hi, Just wondered if anyone had purchased one of these fridges and what your thoughts are? Obviously I know you get what you pay for but I don't really want gas and will be on a 240v hook up most of the time and just need to keep my beer cold :D

Hopefully someone can help me out? I have recently removed my engine and having looked at the tinware it is obviously not correct I have looked at JK and VW Heritage I cannot work out what part I need to order. You will see from the photos that the previous owner has made it fit by riveting on...

I am about to start giving the inside of my bus a good clean to remove the build up of dirt that has been deposited over the past 40 years and I wondered what would be the best cleaner to use or is it simply elbow grease and a tub of T Cut?

I have searched through old threads as I am sure someone will have already done this and I am looking for some pointers please? I have a 71 LHD US Westy with the original 110 volt hook up connector on the left hand side of my bus and I would like to convert it to accept our 240 volt blue...

I received my lovely new ply roof lining kit today but then realised that it does not come with the strips to put between the sheets of ply rather than just butting the sheets together. Unfortunately the old roof that I have now removed had horrible with plastic strips which were stapled to the...
