The crewie has been on the road a year now, I use it nearly every day, going to work, shops & Camping!!!
I’ve been doing a bit maintenance lately after having a bit trouble with the brakes & the manifold boots!!
There’s always something needs attention but overall it’s proving fairly reliable mind . Shhhhhh!!!!! :|














Off to Volkspower @ Redcar next weekend, then the big test!!!
Newquay the weekend after, for a week!!!!

Wish me luck !!! :sign0009:
 


Down to 25mph on a couple of inclines mind!!!
That was scary!!
Hit 75mph at one point too!! That was scary also!!!
 
Unfortunately it is now running like a pig, doesn’t want to tick over or start properly!!
Fan belt is flapping about like mad & brakes are shit too!!!
I’ve got a list of jobs to do before SkegVegas!
 
It’s now got a butty’s bits throttle kit fitted & ive asked Richie to recondition a solex 34 pict carb for me to replace the wheezy 31 pict it has on !!!
I’m dying to go camping again, but baby is due next month so we’ll not be away till July for Volkspower!!
 




Small update, we now have a canvas cover for the back, a westy roof rack, twin Weber 34 carbs & a 15 month old girl.

Unfortunately it’s currently off the road with a smashed windscreen 😞
