My 68 Westy - as time goes by .....

[*Sam*]

Mike that's spot on, how's the ride with the beam wound up all the way ?

 

[Clem]

Thanks everyone


Ride quality is pretty good, still on drop spindles and just wound right up on adjusters. Regular dampers fitted and 185/65 x 15 tyres fitted. Nice to not bother about pot holes and speed bumps, but it's a bit wallowy with no anti roll bar fitted.
When I get back, and when I can be arsed it'll go back down again, drives comfortably but doesn't look so good, I reckon

Left Lake Garda yesterday about 8pm, and hit the Mont Blanc tunnel again about 2am

After a real scary descent in the dark and being very tired :lol: we found an aire for the night and slept

At Dijon now, the funs over, just miles to do!

It's on this thread somewhere Sam, a few pages back

Great pics and glad all is going well. Our trip seems so long ago already
I'd go back to Switzerland tomorrow if I was allowed! Lake Garda is on the hit list for a future trip as only hear nice things about it.
Safe journey home

Cheers
Al

After a laid up winter with an injury all my plans went to pot :roll: So spring came and I had to catch up a bit.
It needed lowering again and fitting with some decent coil overs ... all done



Went camping to Stanford Hall



Used the sunshade I bought from faux



It's cool but a bit low where it connects on the van 8)

And I popped into the new Gloucester M5 services

Didn't think that would be too much of a problem for you Mike
