Hi all, have searched the forums, but can't find a section with recommendations ? Am looking for someone in the North Surrey area, (poss Hants/Berks too) who can do some welding on my '72 Bay. I am never going to find the time, and nearly sold her twice ! But, we may have some spare cash in...

Hi all, I have a R&R bed that I bought second-hand a number of years ago for the van. IT's made from ply, and was originally meant for a splittie so we were told. I had to trim it a little to fit, but it seemed to work well enough, with foam we bought from JK. It's nowhere near as substantial as...

Hi, my '72 crossover tin-top is now no longer available, thanks for any interest, and watch this space for details of the restoration.

Apologies if this has been posted before, but several of us at School are driving the kids on Friday, and a few questions were asked about seat belt legalities. I found this, and there are a few pertinent sections if you have a camper van, certainly at around questions 15/16 if I remember...

Hi all, simple question. Is there a wheel from a watercooled VW that has the same pcd as a bay, that would give me the opportunity of using a spacesaver for the spare? It's a '72. Cheers, Ivor.

Hi everyone, sorry if these questions have been asked before, if so, just point me to the right thread....... :wink: 1. Can an offside cargo door from a LH drive van, be modified to fit on the left. I have a total wreck of a standard UK cargo door, and cant afford a good one, but if I cut out...
