Not a major resto more of a freshen up, engines out at the mo. Repainting the bay and fixing a couple of leaks on the engine, also powdered the tinware. Hope to get the motor back in next weekend. :)
 
Mines on the road, have taken it out both days over the weekend 8)
Looking forward to going to some shows again this year :D Still have lots of things that I want/need to do to it tho :!:
 
My engine is now in situ, but nothings connected.

Maybe itll get done this week? :roll:
 
On the road and running as sweet as...
Done 100 miles in it today (my daily wouldn't start so had to take the van)
Not the best looking van but useable and having a semi-interior rebuild / re-furb
April 6th having ti lowered on adjusters and rear spline turned
 
Up, running and ready for a trip to surrey, took it for a spin in the dark in the week and realised no dash lights and forgot about candles for headlamps :? , was still fun anyway ;)
 
Picked it up 23rd December 2007 (Merry Christmas to me!) Longest been off the road was best part of a fortnight when fitting the K&L beam and found bent trailing arms. Californian bus so no rot to deal with, and no 'resto' planned, just a constant evolution, stuff I want to do and stuff that needs to be done. Tons planned and parts sat waiting, just time to do it! Too busy driving it to take it off the road for more than a day!
 
Mine lives just off the road :lol: but is always ready to drive at any time 8) - it is my only working vehicle so it has to be on call all the time.

My bug currently looks not dissimilar to this...

But still also has MOT (til the end of the month), tax and insurance :D
 
off the road and the bus hasnt seen daylight for over a year and half, but hopefully this week i will get it on the drive for some fresh air, but still wont be ready hehe
 
Mines on the road as its my daily,been using it every weekend throughout the winter to go somewhere,went down to the Lizard on Saturday, beautiful blue Sky. :)
 
This poll is too extreme, ours if off the road at the moment but as soon as I sort the broken side light connection, sort the US style tail lights and MOT - we'll be on the road for the summer......a little flutter of excitement every time I think of it!
 
Mine is on the road & nearly ready to be used. I am still working on various bits & looking to do a major engine & gearbox swap soon too.

Here is some inspiration for all you guys waiting for paint & doing resto's. when it starts to look this this, it's all worth it...

Unless I have to sell it when we move! bloody housing market! :cry:
 
On the road&rolling.

Doing some small jobs at the moment; fixing the cooker and repainting the woodslats of my front roofrack.
And there will be a remote brakeservo on the bus somewhere this summer.
