yeah that dormobile is niiiice

Did they do any full length rag tops from factory? I know the bus is a uk and was originally from Ramsgate...not sure if this poses any significance?

So it seems to be quite a bit further forward from the seat belt mounts?

I will get some pictures up as soon as i can

Oh sounds nice :D I decoded the m plate and it was a kombi originally so i guess it had windows. Would have just been nice to put the roof on it which it would have had originally. Either way a good idea will be for me to look at a few this summer whilst using mine and get a feel for a few...

Thank you, we are very pleased with it :D

I bought the bus...ended up getting it as a non runner for £5500.00 Bought it home and the push rod in the lift pump had broken away the plastic seat in the cheap aftermarket one , replaced this and she fired right up! Just a question...its got a full length rag top... but how would you know...

Yeah the lady who owns it is my best friends mum. No it doesnt sound pessimistic, ive restored cars before and have good friends in the trade so I know what could be involved, I appreciate the help. I pretty much came on to gain knowledge about these buses because its good to know the common...

How would I find out which roof it had originally? Is it just a case of looking at the original fixing points? Or can you find out from the M plate etc? Thanks

So I had a good look over the bus yesterday. The sills which you can see are solid, no rust at all. Every door underneath is completely solid with no rust, windscreen solid. The guttering has no rust at all.. The cab footwell has been repaired already with plates welded in nicely and no rust...

Yeah I was aware of the MOT failure ... thanks for that

So its a UK low light cross over?

So I decoded the plate and here are the original details.. MODEL: Type 2 (T2) mod. 234(0) : - Kombi - Sliding door left - RHD 1972 Planned production date Wednesday, 12 July 1972 Type of engine Type 1 (AD) - 1584cc, 37 kW (50 bhp DIN) Type of transmission Manual 4-speed gearbox Paint color...

I did think it should have discs?? Why are you saying that because you think there will be a lot of hidden rot etc?

I can bring this bus home and have a real good look over it without handing over any cash and return it if I dont want it. The lady selling it is as good as family. I think this will be the best idea. Cool ill take a look at the M plate.

Would it be the M plate decoding?

Yeah I completely agree How would i find out what the original colour and model was? Dormobile etc?

Thank you for the advice. One of my best mates paints old mustangs for a living daily and he will come to view with me saturday. Too be honest i would be looking for a bus at cheap money which I can use through this summer and then through next winter restore it. I would rather this than a...

Hi, we have been looking for a bay for a while now and we have just been offered one by a close friend. I was just hoping for some advice about the price of it and also some info on the van itself. So i believe its a crossover?? Its a 1972 on a L-reg. I thought crossovers should only be on a K...
