Hi peeps

I have just joined, i currently dont have a bus but have just started looking at what is around.
Would ideally like a tin top ealry bay 71/72ish

Well looks like i will be spending many a week reading through all the treads and getting to understand all the techincal as i have never owned a VW Camper. Lots of learning ahead

Well just wanted to say hi

Regards

Welcome and good luck in your hunt, there's plenty out there at the moment!

thanks for the welcome

I have seen a few, just not sure on which way to go, buy a panel van and covert/buy a resto project or but a tin top all ready to go

Just trying to get an understanding of the costs involoved really with each project

Good luck

Hi Guys

Anyone suggest any good sites to find a van? i have been on dubs4sale, is there any other good sites people have used?

thanks in advance

 

[Andy1564]

can think of plenty from when i was looking, though it depends if you want to go private or trade,

you've got the samba, volkszone, volksworld, and of course early bay for the private

or Midland Early Bay, VWClassics, Vintage Valley, etc, if you buy Camper & Bus magazine there is a lot of traders advertised in there.

Have you tried Pistonheads?

Hello, do a google search for vw campers for sale and trawl through all the local gumtree ads as well.

hi mate, welcome to the site, good luck with your bus purchase, have a good think about what sort of bus you want and what you'll be using it for, stick to your guns and you'll have your ideal bay.
