968FE8EE-A186-471C-9EAA-2300664AA8A7.jpeg Out fir a bit in mine yesterday morning as the sun was out. Went down to see Nick and the boys and have a bacon sarnie. Started missing on the way down there so we had are sarnies and then poked our head in the noisey cupboard. As soon as we started poking about it started raining then push came to shove and I drove home on three or maybe three and a half :rolleyes: Got back to my garage and by this time someone had turned the tap on full upstairs so I got in and got the karcher window vax out and dried him off. We can always look in the noisey cupboard when it’s dry. I’ll bet money it’s one f them plug leads under the carbs because I wiggled everything else :) I’ve got a newish idea for the paint so I’m guessing the leopard print will have to go soon.

Pretty happy with my bus. There are a few things... windshield wiper motor won't work on high, electric windshield washer fluid pump I installed isn't working, and there are a few rust spots I need to throw some paint on when the weather gets drier. And I still need to replace the vinyl on my Dormobile top, but that might turn out to be a project and a half.

Great replies folks cheers. Its great to see others loving their buses too. They do keep us on our toes don't they but i could never be without mine in a million years. She's never going to be out of my ownership 😊. @mcvw and @YellowBay69 and those who aren't quite there with your buses yet, keep with them, they will get there and on the road. My bus took 6 years to do and counting and to general folks she looks amazing (apart from where i currently live. Someone actually said thats a nice Jeep! True story 😳) (glad im moving in a couple of months😊) but im like hmm, that could be better but me being me im very fussy 😆. Its a shame we are all far away. I would have helped out.

I’m happy with the way mine is coming along. After a 6 year lay up. I decided to recommission it and drive it down to the Le Mans classic this year. So rebuilt the engine and installed that yesterday (yet to fire it up 🤞) painted it last week in rust paint and I love it!! Most of the interior is back in as is all the glass 😎…… I see light at the end of the tunnel 😅

6 years !, congratulations on your resurrection, hope the engine fires up ok. Le Mans classic sounds interesting 🤔

Thank you, it’s the 100 years of Le Mans this year so I thought why not?! 5 days camping on the track and access all areas. Let’s hope for some sun 😎.
Yep 6 years, I put her away and have used the T25 for the past 6 years and it’s about time I swapped them around.
I’m very excited after feeling the universe was against me the whole way…. Everything that could go wrong went wrong 😆 all good now 🤞
