Howdy all,

I'm looking for a solid pair of early bumpers for a 71 Deluxe, would be nice but they dont have to be deluxe model bumpers standard ones will do.

I'm also after some deluxe body trim basically everything is missing so i'll probably end up buying a repro kit when im ready but thought id ask here first to see if anyone has anything laying about. I think the only thing left untouched is the grille.

And the following if anyone can help..

Complete headliner - colour type etc unimportant
Front seats - Standard fit - colour/type etc unimportant
Any seals (engine lid, tailgate, glass) must be new/mint, and window rubbers have to be Deluxe with the groove

- Rear bumper only now.
exhaust (1600 tp) - van currently has a botched up motorbike silencer on it
Alternator kit (1600 tp)
Possibly a LHD Sliding door must be straight and cheap'ish!

The rear of the van is bare so i'm looking for a complete interior (LHD), will take a full camping interior or just bits rock n roll bed etc also any insulation, flooring, cab seats, night heaters, you name it

Trying to do it on a budget so I thought i'd ask about and see whats available second hand give someone some extra spending money thiis xmas before hitting the dealers.

WHYG?
 
Up she goes,

Front bumper now sorted, I picked one up at the weekend.

Still interested in ANY interesting early bay bits anyone has lying around, just try me.

Cash waiting 8)
 
Spirit interiors fit and make a complete headliner for 650 quid , and they take out and put back all your windows too , Rusty Lee on here does complete rock and roll beds for 160 quid i think , get a new exhaust as 2nd ones are usually buggered tbh Grab some brand new Vewib window rubbers as the cheap shit ones dont fit or go in properly :roll: I have a used Ebespacher petrol heater im after 200 for it ;) Cab seats there are a few sets on here for around the 100 quid mark

Cheers Gadget,

I'll be taking the glass out anyway when I prep it for paint, I've looking into it and I can get a headliner made locally for about £130 + fitting.

I agree with the exhaust, unless someone has a nice stainless one lying around :)

I'd snap that heater off you if it was a diesel one (I can get plenty of red diesel from work you see ;) )

Sorry forgot to say hopefully sorted with the front seats, just waiting to find out about them :cry:

We have a rear bumper, it is early and rust free, it will need more prep before painting,
Has been sand blasted so there is nothing hidden, but there are dents that will need filling and attention for nice finish

£125 + shipping which we can do for £15 via parcelmonkey
