I've had my camper since 2010 and I'm only now uploading photos as I was having problems with them which I've now resolved. These are some early photos and the transformation from 'Broken'...

still have 1 x door card and sliding door card to do, but more or less finished. it's been a long time, but well worth the wait and went on holidays to Isle of Wight in it last year which was stunning, off to Kent this year. Can't wait.

Looking good. Your interior roof lining looks brilliant. Did you do it yourself.is that a Rusty Lee bed

 

[VivW]

Thank you.

No like most of us bus owners, I was ripped off by the 1st bloke that said he'd restore my bus. He ran his own VW restoration business, but I moved it to a classic car restorer in my area and although hadn't restored a Vw before he learnt on the job and he did a great job including the new headliner.

Yes it us a Rusty Lee bed and he was brilliant when I got stuck putting the bed in, rung me and offered advice. The bed cushions and door cards were ordered from Delilahs.
