Cheers Steve

Thanks for the info! Frank seems to be a pretty good source of westy stuff!

Did you get the overiders in the end? Have you got the early parcel shelf with your interior? I have one for sale if you need one.

Thanks Jon - I've got the cargo net already - just needs a little straightening!
Just sorting the overiders at the minute.
I've stripped all the interior out of mine this morning so I've got a flat full of westy furniture for the next few weeks

No worries Steve, glad you got the overiders sorted. I know they say a Westy interior is like a piece of art but my Mrs would kill me if I brought it into the house.... :shock:

Daz, nice to see you both in Windy Wales, happy surfing you mad fool.

We had a winter trip out today, gotta make use of the dry weather.

View from the carpark at a scienic drive just down the road.

And a couple of the bus.....so nice to be using her.

Managed to get a few more bits done this week end:

Changed the canvas to one from the states (Cheers Graham):

Fitted a switch to my new fog light (and one for the very noisey clock, for when I am camping):

And fitted new under seat mats, the old ones were too far gone:

And we managed to get out in her too. I need to fit a new carb and fix the brake lights in time for Dubfreeze......wish me luck.

Cheers Guys, I am really enjoying doing this one. It has been such a pleasure to work with.

Very nice looking bus Faux, I like how you hid the plugs and the Propex. Where do you fit the propane - Is it small enough to fit under the seat? What size bottle do you use? Hope you don't mind me asking - I've got to fit one.

Hi and Thanks

I used a 7.5kg bottle, it is too big really to fit under the seat so Imanged to squeeze it into the rear cupboard.

You can get a smaller camping gaz bottle but they are more expensive to buy and fill. I did used one in my previous bay.

 

[tintintin]

cool, good idea - tks

 

[faux]

Can you spot the little additions?

NOS with the box from the states.....cheers J for sorting them out for me.

Driving so much better now, ready for the trip to Volksworld, I just hope the weather changes soon.
