He's cornering the market. Buy up all the projects, so the punter's only have nice shiny ones left to buy :)
 
Scotts trying to put the rest of us out of business :mrgreen:
 
no in all seriousness parts has become the major part of my business so i`m looking to break what other people would consider scrap. By doing this i`ll be helping other restorers by supplying them with what they need in a one stop shop who ha.... :msn4: vwclassics-uk on gay bay :msn4:
 
makes sense to save on the shipping and tax associated with the imported stuff, just a matter of all the hard graft cutting up ****** uk steel.....
 
no the rust free panels and parts are still coming....i`m just not going to supply mot`d busses below 10k anymore after being hit in the nuts several times...no make that at least ten times!I am building rhd rust free genuine vw busses to spec for customers but these start at 23k. I am only taking on 4 a year as well as specialising in earlybay resto`s and parts supply. If you have a resto you want doing and its earlybay then bring it to us. We will not use certain replica panels and we shy away from filler too 8) .5mm of a skim is acceptable but only to cover welding. We have full workshop facilities now and are fully booked out until march 2010
 
Starting at £23K - I thought we were in a recession :mrgreen: :mrgreen: -

What I love about recessions is the majorety of people who arent really worse off but stop spending anyway. When times get better they cant spend it quick enough :roll: Splitty prices went mad after the last one.

Those new Brazilian Danburys seem to be finding owners so why not a fully restored and sorted EB?

Mint right hand drive tax free westy or Brazilian waterboiler with a gas mask on. Mmmmmmm let me think :mrgreen:

I cannot imagine a 23 grand bus...

Good luck with your future buisness... 8)
 
23k is a starter. This includes....
rhd sa shell
completely stripped bare and shot blasted and da`d
small welding where necessary
complete repaint inside and out
all new rubbers
custom handbuilt vorhinger interior inc fridge, cooker, 240 hook up stereo
full retrim
full mechanical rebuild
new tyres, mot, tax no nut and bolt left undone
recon engine with warranty
recon gearbox with warranty
and warranty on all of our work
Extras inc
pop top
alloys
engine upgrade
lowering
I believe these to be good value for money, using an original vw shell and making it as new. Sure some people won`t like it but i know of hundreds of restos that have cost lots more than this. We already have two commissions so must be doing something right and our prices INCLUDE VAT and we insist on doing the job properly from start to finish
