    1969 - GGL 468G

    Not sure of the colour code but it's the metallic red used on Chrysler PT Cruiser. I'll look for the code but I think it's probably long gone? I'm glad to see Jamie's sorting all the nasties but sad to see that it had some tin worm, although I'm not sure I'm a fan of the "little hitch hiker" he...

    1969 - GGL 468G

    Without dragging over lots of things in public, myself as the previous owner and the new owner have nipped any issues in the bud, so to speak. I'd like the thread to remain & I hope others agree. Life's short and occasionally it doesn't go as planned or as others hope. Fingers crossed any issues...

    Paint shop recommendations in Midlands/Peterborough area

    A few years back, a lad I knew had his done by a bus company near Perkins in Peterborough. I can't remember the name but know it was near GSF. It might be worth an ask as they're not a spray business as such, so could be cheaper?

    stock seats or modern one's

    I had Vauxhall Cavalier seats in mine, with headrests & still had a cab bunk. They will all work together if you want.

    1969 - GGL 468G

    It seems odd to start a thread now that my ownership has ended but here goes. I have no pics of the old girl as she started out (shameful I know) but as this was some 12 years ago & before I'd embraced digital technology, there's a strong chance at some point I'll find some in a random suitcase...

    Being realistic with a budget

    I guess everything other than that went faultlessly. Look after her & glad she's gone to a decent home.. I'll get the pics up from my history soon.. ;)

    Hi -Top or Pop Top?

    I'm fancying a change & wondered what options there were about. I'm thinking second hand & wondered if anyone sold them & which were the best types? I've two little un's & my current set up isn't working (fibreglass sliding roof) but already have a hole. Any suggestions/pics/links greatly...

    Awning issue.advise needed.

    I screwed a little stop in the top track of the door to stop it opening fully. Never noticed it creating an issue with loading stuff & it stops the door catching the awning. It's easily removed as it's just one screw...

    buy a RHD they said hahahaha

    Mines RHD & I think they can get bad press. I found a solid starter (£750) & spent 2yrs getting it straight. 12yrs latter it's just starting to show little bubbles & these are on imported doors? I've driven left hookers & had no hassle but life is easier in a RHD, overtaking/drive through's...

    Roxy the '71 Panel - So That's What's Wrong With the Engine

    Thanks for the link chief. Do the wheels make any difference to gearing or are they lower profiles?
