Bought off a guy about eight years ago who said he believed it was original (may or may not be). It came off his Splitscreen bus and was sold to him with it attached. The fixings that clamp onto the gutter do look like older type fittings. Selling as we have bought a roof tent for our bus and so...

Hi. I'm on holiday with my family in the St Columb Major area in Cornwall. Long story short, one has sheared and i need a CV joint bolt as I can't drive the bus. Wondered if anyone has one knocking around who may live close by or if anyone might know where I could get on. I know retro dubs are...

Hi. Wondered if anybody can help. I have just changed my steering wheel for an MCJ wheel which looks brilliant and everything is back in full working order apart from the illumination of the bulbs for the high beam and parking light, which don't illuminate on the dash when activated. The...

Hi all. Hope you are all doing well. Just wanted to ask if it is possible to convert the stock rear drum brakes to discs on my 71 Bay whilst keeping the stock wheels? If so, which conversion kit would you recommend and where can I buy it. We drove through the North Wales mountains fully...

Hi all. Wondered if somebody might be able to advise me. I had our Transmission rebuilt after a catastrophic failure last July. I've just reinstalled it and am trying to adjust the clutch pedal cable to its correct tension/free play. Should the adjustment be made when the engine is installed...

Hi everyone I went to my garage cupboard this afternoon to get my Gasgacinch as i was about it to reinstall my engine after replacing the transmission. Low and behold it dried up in the pot since i last used it! Does anybody in the Warrington area own any that i could nick a bit from or does...

Hi chaps. I was hoping somebody could offer some advice. Returning home from Latitude today we needed to be recovered after I couldnt get the bus into any gear apart from second gear. It wouldnt even go into neutral. Historically over the past 6 months or so it has been popping out of third...

Hi all. Hope somebody might be able to help. Started fitting this last night. How does the heat exchanger connect into the system? Pic attached. Many thanks. Also, should I use standard exhaust gaskets or the gold thick ones supplied with the 4in1 manifold? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Hi. Wondered if anybody could offer any advice. I have a VDO oil pressure gauge hooked up on my bus. I have a small leak from the VDO t-piece adaptor that connects the gauge/pressure switch to the engine block where the oil pressure switch is normally installed. I'm scared of tightening the...

As per title, I need 6 x cream tiebacks with the brown painted popper for my 71 Campmobile. Anyone with any spares? Cheers. Chris.

Hi. Any help much appreciated on this. Got my bus engine in after resto. Changed a few things since it was last running. Bus is running rough and intermittently backfires. I have checked the tappets and adjusted to tdc (my pulley has three notes and a dimple - I believe tdc is the dimple?). The...

Hi everyone. I wondered if anybody can help me. My bus is booked in for its MOT this coming week. I hoped to travel down to Brighton next weekend for its first run out since being restored. I would ideally like the bus to be tuned up before the MOT and my trip. Does anyone have any...

Hi. Wondering if anybody has installed one of these on an Early Bay. I have a 71 Westy and my bus doesn't have the lower mounting hole . I'm presuming this is the case for all early bay buses. My question is what do i need to do to make one!? How have you put one in if you have done this...

Wanted; Westy Aluminium Curtain Track (Not the runner type e.g silent gliss) Need the lower piece off the rear hatch and a long piece for the near side if anybody has any spare. Could potentially collect depending on where you are located as I travel around with work. Cheers.

As per title. If you have one that doesn't leak then give me a shout! Cheers guys :)

Hi. Everything seems to be working ok on my bus after reconnecting all of the electrics after my resto but a few minor issues have surfaced that I hoped somebody with some knowhow might be able to help me diagnose and remedy. 1) When indicating, the instrument panel indicator arrow flashes...

Hi. Wondering if anybody could offer some advice. On reinstalling my engine I am finding that the lower pulley is not turning freely with the new fanbelt installed. Could this mean I've over tightened the fanbelt or has the crankshaft/flywheel been misaligned when the engine was installed. The...
