No it found a good home though and is fitted and being used in a panel van around Newquay. I couldn't bring myself to change the micro interior in the end.

Hi Andy Tbh I'm not sure I am going to use it now! I spent the weekend dropping the kids and their mates all over the place and I have realized I quite like the microbus interior after all. I might be tempted to sell it on for what I paid you for it but am quite happy for it to sit in the garage...

And here's some pics of the rest of the bus as I haven't posted any interior or engine pics.

Out and about this morning. Took the dog for a walk and dropped an elderly neighbour to church. So good deed done!

Graham at rawspeed said it seems like a good engine so I am happy. It wasn't very expensive at the time but Graham said things are...

Engine tuned at rawspeed this morning.

Local classic car show on fathers day. Nice single cab parked up beside me.

Yes twin carbs. Just messaged rawspeed tuning in Plymouth. He has a great reputation and really knows his stuff. Should be on the rolling road next week. As I said it is running well but I just want to have someone knowledgeable give it a health check.

Between tavistock and yelverton.

That looks lovely. Nice work.

Been using the bus on sunny days for the last few months and on the whole it's been good. A few niggles to sort. I have not had the tracking set since the ball joints track rods etc were replaced so will look into this soon. The 2007cc engine runs well but would like a rolling road session just...
