    [For Sale] 2 x Interior cabinets / units / furniture

    Brand new and unused - placed in van for photos only. I purchased these fantastic cabinets towards the end of last year, but as my wife didn't like the colour they have sat in my garage and now in the house ever since.. 2 professionally hand built cabinets in 'Oak' made from lightweight German...

    Repairing or replacing pop-top roof

    Thanks Moseley, looks good, but unfortunately I don't possess the skills you do :( Think I'm going to remove the interior finishing on the roof and assess the severity, hoping for a simple fix to both issues... ;)

    Repairing or replacing pop-top roof

    Just enjoyed a good couple of days away but last night with the rain, we evidently have a leak somewhere in the current pop top. :( Then upon lowering the roof down before heading home, one of the fixing brackets for the lifting mechanism pulled out of the roof as well :( :( To be fair the roof...

    Thanks Moseley, would be interested to see your finished unit. I also have a stove already, but thanks for the heads up. In terms of buying ready made units, who would people suggest worth trying/looking at..??

    Interior 'kitchen' unit

    Having finally got my 71 bus back on the road, I'm looking to get a unit for the interior... I want to retain the full width RnR bed, and it'd be good if the unit was removable so could use it inside and outside the van or at least along the window side and/or backing on to the front seats...

    71 T2 electrics problem :(

    Finally got it sorted this weekend through a helpful mechanic in Binfield/Hurst (near Fox & Sons actually). Took the van on a low loader and turned out it was a faulty 'pick up' in the electronic ignition ??? So pleased it's fixed and up and running, passed MOT today too with no issues (apart...

    71 T2 electrics problem :(

    https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3newdz0xgsylnec/T1wVrRL2PS Hopefully the link takes you to my Dropbox folder. There are 4 pictures; the far shot doesn't show too much but that's the whole engine compartment. The other 3 photos are of the coil from different angles - back in August before trying to...

    71 T2 electrics problem :(

    Thanks for the replies. Yes it turns over but doesn't start. I believe there are 8 wires off the coil, but not sure if they were all connected in the correct way? The guy who checked it out last night said it is a process of elimination and wanted to start with the wires/wiring - as this is...

    71 T2 electrics problem :(

    Our 1971 T2 has been off the road since August with an electrical problem which I was hoping a friend with VW Campervan experience and knowledge was going to fix over the winter. Unfortunately he's been unable to look at it for a number of reasons, so now I need to look at my options - any...
