My van is now for sale, so thought I'd start the ball rolling on here first. I need to add more details and photos but here's a brief summary: No rot underneath whatsoever – MOT garage (classic specialists) said it was the best example they've seen! New recon 1641cc engine with new twin carbs...

Yeah new vw heritage engine £2,349.00 (not fitted though-not that I can see). Do they fit as well? Can't see anywhere on the site for fitting services. Whats the view on here on the likes of thevwenginecompany.com – there's a lot of good reviews and positive feedback and turnkey prices (inc...

So it went in for MOT and service today – the good news it got through the MOT with just a new headlight, the bad news is a long list of issues together with a 'knackered' engine which compiled issues of: Engine has considerable end float- v.bad Small metal pieces found in sump from engine oil-...

thanks guys – really helpful! cheers

Here's how it looks underneath, as you can see pretty solid. Some surface rust appearing so I guess that first coat of rust converter will be a great start to fix this!

Thanks for the advice – really helps! I'll try and get some photos tomorrow for ya'll. Purchased some of that exterior body wax, haven't done a proper wax on it since owning it – only a 2 in 1 turtlewax (oops). Next on the list sounds like some rust convertor for the underside – not sure if...

I'm looking to sound/heat proof my van this winter whilst it's off the road tucked up on the drive. Mainly to reduce some of the noise when driving and make it a little more comfortable for camping next year. I've looked at a few products on the market – noise killer and Dynamat (on jk). It's...

hi guys - so i finally got around to doing this weekend. have run a wire from the + of the leisure battery straight to the radio swapping the current 12v supply from the main battery fuse box. The radios working but only when the ignition is on (so i'm guessing this means its not currently a...

Cheers for this guys - i'll have a go!

Hi there - bit of an electrics novice here. I have hooked up a head unit in my van and all works nicely - however I want to wire this to the leisure battery (currently wired into the ignition) so that I can have it on when parked up camping. If I'm correct I need to run a wire from the leisure...

Van cover SOLD

hello mate - sure that sounds like you've got a deal. As mentioned there is a tear in the cover which has been taped up. also one of the plastic clips has lost a part to it but it still clips in place and secures as it should do (doesnt hinder it working). So all in all it does exactly what it...

Hi all - I'm trying to find out details of the engine in my cal import westy. The code under the base of the now alternator just says 'M', on the right hand face rather than on the rear side. No numbers, just M. This is telling me its an after market engine. I want to set the timing so I want to...
