I've got a good spare opening 1/4 - just the glass and chrome. A little overspray on the glass but thats easily sorted I kept it as a spare incase anyone ever broke in but downgraded to a split :cry: Bargin at £10. Seb

Yes your welcome to pop over, I have some buyers coming sunday and have turned it into a bit of a free for all/open day so if you want to see the conversion sunday is best. I am away with work after that until the auction ends. The conversion is not very hard and well worth doing Best to call...

Hi I did indeed and its not too hard. Its a fun way to go quickly. Try VWKD for info and if you want to go the golf 2e gti route then give me a shout and I'll talk you through it If you go scooby use RJES he isn't cheap but is by far the best and you'll be better off in the long run. The...

Due to having to many projects we are putting our fantastic 71 bay up for sale We have spent thousands on this and love this van but we also have a split bug, a pickup and soon to arrive another camper so somethings got to give All the welding on this van has been done by Jim at Cotsweld so...

I think they are the same as the later bay and t25 and you should be able to get one from your local vw van center! Complete with uv joints Either that or your local GSF? Good luck Seb

I thought you where trying to take me on that dual carrageway! great to see it running so sweet, thinking of changing my blue now I've spent a weekend with all those sweet beige busses. Seb

46 at the wheels Fancy a race Mike? 8) see you tomorrow Seb

Jim @ Cotsweld is very good and a nice guy, he did shed loads of welding to my 71 a few years back and always been happy with it, unlike the company who sprayed it! He's not cheap but he's good The boys at the Vanshack in Oxford are very good too, they do everything and I'm always impressed at...

I've got a golf gti in my bay and its a lot of fun. The rovers a nice lump but getting old........ What about an african T25 bellhousing used for the audi 5 cylinder engine, which happens to share its bolt pattern with (I think) the audi v8. This means you could have an aluminium 4.2 twin...

This would be a fairly easy panel to make yourself. There are a couple of simple folds. The ribbing is only for strength. This panel had gone in my bay and Jim at cotsweld just made another :D Seb

I had a set of american racing hopsters and the offset is mad for a bus! You'll struggle to get them on, I had 6" and 7" by 15" and tried them on the bug for a laugh and even the 6's stuck out of the rear by 2" and I'd have had to narrow the front by 7" From memory they com in american ford and...

Stop it Your gonna find me a crew soon that I can't resist and I'll never get the split done Bad, bad mike :evil: (The other one was better just far too late) Seb

Its not too bad to do, The input shaft and the selecta rod need adjusting with an angle grinder On a similar subject has anyone fitted a 1303 box in a bay? Would it be strong enough? Seb

I've only seen one DIY spindle but it was done by a very talented pro and it was a stunning job You can't under estiamte the difference in an expensive pro welder and a cheap mig. Even the best welder can't do it with a halfords own brand gasless mig! I'll be adding adjusters in the split bug...

This is a very different image than the idea of someone cutting up two sets of stock spindles and mig welding them on a black and decker workmate! Sounds like a good plan, how low are you going? Seb

Are you planning on mig or tig welding these? I'd be tempted to cut and tack them at home and then get a very good friendly pro to stich them up. Its not just how well you weld but a pro welder mate of mine has a £3500 tig which has to be a better welder than my £150 mig Just my twopenith...

I made my own and it means all the leasure stuff and hi fi stuff goes in one nice loom. Make sure you put a few spares in too for future ad ons Seb
