OK, here's the thing the Westy has been passed on to the next custodians and I always thought I'd hang on to my Airmighty Magazines as from day one I loved the different VW's and the photography has always been terrific, but I lost my job last month and I am working my way through bits and bobs...

Blimey Clem You were right, the cost of these is rising as fast as a nice 'one year only '68 :lol: ebay item 231891523700 $265 plus another $48 to post it

I found this in the garage still in the UPS packaging from the USA, I bought it as NOS stock Yankee Clamp on side mirror from TheSamba thinking it would be useful when I was driving in Europe in my RHD westy but I never used it. It's 5x2 1/2 inches with a 6 inch arm cost $60 plus postage. Fixes...

Always nice to walk away with a new crisp MOT certificate with no advisories. Thanks as always to Jason at Interpro in Thornbury for giving it the once over this morning. The westy was earning its keep over the weekend taking stuff to the tip (sorry recycling centre :roll: ) and now sorted for...

Just spotted this - I haven't looked at the small print but just thought it may appeal to someone on the forum http://www.ebay.co.uk/rpp/ebay-car-challenge

Sometimes being patience and seeking a second opinion helps. Its well documented the issues I've had with what is basically a well spec'd bus (for that read money pit/divorce generating piece of machinery) designed and built to be used anywhere in the UK or Europe - but driving back up from...

Having had a great trip to Spain & France last year in the Westy plans were set early in the year to head for Scotand. Primarily the West Coast but with a couple of islands to be thrown in and a stop over in Dornoch to catch up with old friends. had a two night stay in the Derbyshire Dales...

Now Sold Long story this, but having replaced the exhaust, & 123 & had the carbs off and checked more than once the search to stop the annoying popping on my westy ended with the conclusion/advice that it must be the heat exchangers. So, search started & I found a pair of OE via Stateside for...

SOLD Just taken out of my bus as I've had a 091 6 rib installed. Gear selection no problem at all with my geneberg stick, but it was starting to sound noisy. Suggestion was that it might be wear on the lay shaft but I had probably got so used to it and the fact that the box was working it didn't...

Having changed almost everything else and still having problem with 'popping' so there must still be an air problem somewhere - process of elimination points to the heat exchangers so whats out there? My existing set provide heat so I know part of them must be functioning OK its just this damn...

Changes are being made to my westy and I've now gone down the Turbo Thomas route. This means my Vintage Speed unit is coming off either today or Monday so offering it here first as usual. It the code number is 155-209-05200 on the VS site and its the one they describe as T2A Baywindow BUS...

Finally added a missing link that makes driving the bus so much easier as low speed. litesteer june 2015 by cotswoldiver, on Flickr Great service from Neil, he had made the unit up in advance of my arrival with an adjustment made so that we could retain the underdash shelf that has proved so...

I'm going to be putting this up for sale on ebay next week, but before I do offering it here. Its a great awning that we have taken into europe and used in the UK, and it really can be pitched very quickly. Like many others before us, we were careless when opening the sliding door and ripped...

One of those nice bright blue sky but chilly winter days so couldn't resist starting the westy up and taking it out for a few miles of smiles and then a crisp walk once parked up. OK it was a pain having to wash it when I got back home because of the amount of gritting that has been carried out...

Had cause to order from 3 suppliers this week, and all three delivered the following day on standard postage. Two were big boys, VW Heritage & Custom & Commercial and it's great they both offer forum members discount with an easy code system, and the third was Butty's Bits. Thanks guys terrific...

OK, I've checked the obvious - bulbs are OK, fuse is OK and I've changed the brake light switch - but I still haven't got working brake lights. I've connected to the bike rack electrics and the brake light don't work on that either. All other lights are fine .... So what is so obvious that I've...

Wish me luck, heading off tomorrow to pick up the ferry in Portsmouth and landing in Santander Saturday afternoon. Opening part of the break in northern Spain, then heading up the coast through France with a little diversion along the Dordogne somewhere, then back to pick up the French coast run...

It's open for the season again Love the feeling of this place. Lovely rambling site, fires in pits and washing machine drums allowed, terrific exploring for the kids and close to one of the most beautiful parts of the UK. It was good to be here at the weekend, ride the bikes, visit the coast...

The Westy hasn't moved since November when the new KONI shocks were fitted at Rocket Ron's workshop. It's been tucked up on the drive under a protec cover with a CTEK charger maintaining the battery, but it was such a good feeling when having scraped off the frost it started on the third turn of...
