No more pictures as yet as I cant stop driving her and hearing the twin 40s grace my ears with that amazing note! I did start to look at the sun roof at the weekend and needless to say made it worse! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: the plastic guards that hold the cables in place are very brittle and need replacing! so just in the process of collecting a few bits for the job, I have new felt too! also the window mechanism broke Sunday so I am replacing that this weekend! all in all a crap weekend for bus progress! but who cares when it looks and sounds that good... :lol: :lol:

Aaahh, when we were chatting about sunroofs I didn't realise it was Pete's old bus, I tried to buy this before he did but he beat me to it :lol:

Still looking cool as ever, hopefully see you in the new year

Looks good but theres another bit that should go over the cog wheel assembly unless you have that bit?

Hi ya'll

Have not posted on here for a while as we have just been enjoying the bus, we used it for our wedding last Easter, then honey moon in Cornwall bus never misses a beat! engine is just awesome.




Then a few of us drove to spa last summer again it was amazing, trying to keep up with a 2276 turbo split, needless to say we didn't just drive slow all the way there and back without one issue!



I have managed a few bits and bobs, westy gear is back in now, sunroof is sorted (sort of) set of louvre windows installed and working.









And i finally got around to removing the massive chunk of filler down the driver side! was crapping myself at what i would find under there but lucky it was just more dents and solid OG German metal! looks a lot better, had some Montana mixed up and just needs ageing now!
