Nice - from what I've read, I'm getting almost the same from Laurie as you've got ... And I think he's starting to build it now you have yours!

Looks good, be sure to tell us how I goes when you get on the road 8)

today i fitted og seat belts all round new tie back for curtains fitted my classic camper club badge (ebay bargain) and finished my cupboard complete with magazine rack

Hadders, it has bags of torque, I will need a freeway flyer or my box modifying next winter as if feels under geared now. I am running 36 dells as I want pulling power, not high revs. Is Laurie just building the long block for you? I spent two days with him helping build up the engine and instal it, was a lot of fun.

Yep, just the long block - he's not exactly on the doorstep, so he's recommended someone more local to build the rest of it up. I'll have to see how he feels about having someone moping around the workshop for a day or two :msn4:

I want the same as you, ie torque not outright power, so this will no doubt end up needing gearing change

Lobie, lovely van, I'll keep my eyes out for you this summer

Got my bus MOT'd and it Passed!!!

Well apart from the battery strap requirement!!

Very pleased!!!!

 

[niklee1]

Had a look at the Vintage speed exhausts at the Volksworld show they look awesome...shame they didn't have an early bay one to look at. Yours looks sweet , match's your bus ;-)

Nice.....

 

[Oh.go.on.then]

Did the four hour trip to Pete at Space roofs to have a new Westy type roof put on instead of the leaky Devon.

Next time we see the bus the whole family should be able to sleep in it

This is more what i did yesterday to my Early Bay.......

Finished my propex install.

 

[Jay71]

Sun was out so gave the bus a polish then headed out for drive. Ended up at Ikea and picked up a King size mattress

Who needs a pop top, sleeping under the stars

 

[lobie]

went for a spin

 

[Mark6455]

Spent nearly all day trying to get a sheared off bolt out of my rear hub carrier but failed
£20 worth of broken drill bits later and nothing to show for it

The bloody stubborn bolt

The side that sheared off

The strip down(my mate Roy helping)

It's off but not without braking copper brake line and having to grind off a bolt on the cv boot :?

Wrapped up until I get it sorted

After hours of heating it up drilling the life out of it and it still won't budge

 

[crede999]

Mark I feel your pain :shock: we've all been there at some point

Put a nut on the end and turn the mig up and fill the hole up with weld

One inch of weld will hold a ton !


Good luck fella and keep at it
