NOW SOLD

Check out my 1971 westy. Need it gone before the end of summer. Listed in for sale section and on Gumtree and preloved.

Anyone interested??????? Advertised on Gumtree and preloved if you want to see pictures. Reduced to £8650 ono.

FOR sale is my 1971 VW T2 Westfalia tin top. This is a genuine early bay camper with disc front brakes. After buying this small project nearly 2 years ago a busy life and no spare time has made me let it go to someone else. I bought it with a new mot ready to roll. It drove 50 miles home really...

So does this mean that I have to put heat exchangers on and a new manifold. What the hell is that going to cost????????? What do other people do with the pre heat tubes when no heat exchangers fitted. The thing that has always puzzled me is that if engine tin wear is so important then what...

Throttle stop screw is set as you have said. The carb looks like a copy, should I get a genuine and rebuild it??? Does anyone have any views on the thermostat and flaps that are missing

Can anyone help??? My 71 twin port runs like a pig. When purchased it ran fine but cut out at every stop. So after a few tweeks of the carb I got it to idle but when driving it had a really bad flat spot and no power. Carb off and a good clean out and check over, choke set up and both adjustment...

No longer needed. Spare wheels will be supplied with my new bus.

Hi, has anyone got a wheel for my westy??? My new ride doesn't have a spare. Not too worried about condition as it can be painted and a tyre would be a bonus but not essential. Mine has discs and a 71 model so must have holes in. I'm in North Yorkshire and don't want to travel too far if...

Ok thanks for all comments. What if no pipes, no holes in tin wear and carb hot spot pipes cut short??? Don't want something that is going to blow up.

Forget the earache bit, I get that anyway from the other half. Do they have any effect on engine cooling, is it going to knacker the engine.

Still looking for a bay but most I have seen have the pipes from the fan housing blanked off or missing. Some don't even have holes in the tin wear for the pipes to go to the underside. What are they for and are they needed. Cheers dudes

Quick sale now needed on the Porsche, open to sensible offers and reduced price of £4195

Thanks to all who responded to this post, just to clarify a few points. No projects as i dont really have time to do major jobs. Would like a taxed and tested runner with minor imperfections not a problem. I know its a big ask for a tidy bay for my budget of £8000 ish but someone must have a...

How unfinished?
