Hi, I am new to the VW Bay, as my last camper was a T25..... so just a few questions after reading about these buses
- Mine is a 1970, so is it right that it will be drum brakes ? ( I cant check as I am currently in the North sea, and only took delivery of it the day I was going away )

- What should I be looking at doing if it is ? what to buy ? discs, callipers, ???

- And what kind of price will I be looking at to upgrade this ( new and second hand )

- Is it an easy job ? or would I be better sticking it into somebody who does this day in and day out ?

- Also what would be a good suspension upgrade ? ( I know it has been lowered , but not sure about anything else )

- It is a 1600, and is flat as a fart, what is a basic not so expensive way to upgrade engine to start with ?

Thanks guys ... just doing lots n lots of research while I am away .... but this seems a excellent group for info
