1971 westy

[minty]

Hi all, I thought it was about time i joined in. This arrived last week, my first bus, a 1971 westy from patrick at kieft en klock. MOT today, all she needed was a couple of tyres and the new headlights adjusted up. Piant is sunburnt, but the rest is all good.
Happy days

Thanks, thats the plan, Getting it lowered over winter, I am awaiting some Ankor wax, do you think that will be enough to protect whats left of the paint? It also needs new door seals (expensive!) and a few other bits and bobs but on the whole i am chuffed to bits with it

As Aaron says give it a good lean and then wax oil the life out of it, keep that wax oil going on and it will last and preserve for years 8)
