Popped Clara on her stand at Volksworld. We're downstairs in the Esher Hall. Come and say hi if you're around. Lovely to see the earlybay lineup - I didn't envy you guys last night! Proper hardcore!!!

This was last Thursday evening, just got around to uploading the photos. I fitted the Foamex Sheeting roof liner. Next will be to sticker bomb it when the van is back from getting the new engine fitted. Got a sign maker living near my mum and he supplied and cut the boarding to size. I used silicone lube at the edges so that I could slide it along the J-channels. Was a bit of a bitch to be honest.. lets hope this one stays up.

Excuse the crap quality of the photo, but you get the gist.

Over the weekend I tidied up my engine bay whilst the engine is out. Finished of the Firetec install, Leisure battery and split relay

With the deep freeze finally over, I checked on my bus in storage and can't wait to get her out this weekend to waken her from hibernation.
 
nice day hhe plastic here so decided to remove the plastic chrome deluxe trim i fitted as it had started to look tatty (£12 off ebay)

took about 1 1/2 hours to remove the sticky 3M tape and clean it up. then fitted OG rear seat belt Polished the outside and went for a spin in it, hoping the weather is nice over the bank holiday so i can get out in it again
 
Put the engine back in... and it starts :mrgreen:

now it works a treat :D
