Hi guys, I just realised I've been rude and never introduced myself neither :oops:

My name is Nathan, I live in Belgium and I bought myself an april '68 early, an battered and abused ex-freiwillige feuerwehr bay.

This is my bus when I bought it :roll: :

For the moment this is how it looks 8) :

I'd love to come visit you guys at vanfest or some other meet but that'll take a while
I guess :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hope to get it sprayed come spring...
 
New here, not got one at the moment but am thinking long and hard about it :D

I talked my parent's into getting one back in the mid-90s - pic below of some cool young dude with it (I can't quite work out what happened to him? :p )

Was a good van - 1700, Danbury conversion (I think - cooker under front passenger seat), I took it to VW Action one year. I love the lowlight look over the later vans, but would prefer a T1 engined one, coz bits are cheaper :lol: I wonder if TGC is still around though :?:

Had two Beetles back in the late 80s, early 90s - a marina blue 1300 and a marina blue 1303 (the '03 got turned into a Yellow & Black racer replace after a slight misunderstanding with a tractor :? ). The '03 went on the Cruise au Soleil to the Paris show one year too 8)

Haven't fully left the VW fold (2 mk 1 Golfs, mk 2 Jetta and currently a Seat Cordoba), but the air-cooled siren song is playing in my heart again! Must be why I've kept the rallybugs.com website going all these years :lol:
 
welcome to EB it was a fine looking dormobile 8) , do you have any plans for another?

Thnx Johnny :) Yeah, I'm looking into maybe buying next year - got to decide on whether I'm leaving the IOM to head back to the UK permanently yet, as it wouldn't be particularly fair to buy a decent lowlight and then bring it over to an island in the middle of the Irish Sea, with all that salt air :lol:

Morning!
Just joined the world of the earlybay - so thought I should sign up and join in!

After a long and very cold journey back from York to Cambridge on Friday night (got in at 3:30am) this 1970 Westy was finally mine :)
