Sneak Preview 69

[faux]

I will soon be back in the bay club ....splits are not family friendly enough for me now and I miss my old 72 Devon. So I have put a deposit on a 69 bay due in 4 weeks. Here is a sneak preview to wet the appetite for what is to be my keeper. Cheers Daz and Lee, I will be calling on advice soon.

I will add more pics when it arrives:

It will be having a little lowering and narrowing magic though, I can't do stock!

Things can get a bit like that here - just put the word 'biscuit' into the search box at the top of the page and you'll see what I mean...

Cheers Lee/Daz, Dave, everyone

It is now due on 14 August, I have big plans for her which include a little lowering on link pins and little narrowing (nothing too silly only 2").

I'm also after another Westy to use as my family camper while I do the other one, lets just see how that works out.

No more pics until she arrives. :lol:

Now Due on the 24 August....gutted!

I have already been busy and built up my 2" Narrowed beam, link pins etc
Cheers Paul (T2D)

And I have my new wheels thanks to Tim at Road House Retro....top bloke.

I hope it comes or I will have a lot of expensive parts and no bus

Nice wheels :lol: . Link pin on a bay? :?: I thought all bays were ball joints or is that bus going to kiss the ground? 8) 8) 8)

In order to go low safely and comfortably link pin seemed the only way to go. I have lowered on a ball joint beam and it was not comfortable when really low. Drop spindles are alot more accesible for link pins. Having spoken to Tim at Roadhouse Retro and Paul at T2D this is the best route. I have put my trust in the people who have already done it. Here's two bays Tim has dropped:

Steve's (Westy interior), met him at Deva....nice bus!:

If my bus looks half this good I'll be happy, but I want it to be a comfortable and practical family camper too. I don't want too much.

Looks like it'll be a star 8)

 

[owenmac]

Love the wheels 8)

[faux]

The wheels are Moon Eyes - Speed Maters, Tim from Roadhouseretro.com imports them.

It's here at last.....Cheers Simon.....a man of your word...

There are loads of jobs to do but this one is a keeper so I will be doing it right. No reverse gear at the moment, a small hole in the floor and the pop top hinges are broken, but I love it.

I will be having a good go at cleaning etc tomorrow and will take some pictures of it at home. It will need to go a whole heap lower before it will get in the garage.

Can't stop smiling
