Hello Early Bay people,

I'm relatively new here and a returning VW owner after 25+years of being on hiatus. I previously owned a 67 and 72 bug in the 80's and as of 2 1/2 years ago I'm a proud owner of a 1970 bay window bus that I call Coleman. I'll post pics later, as my work Internet filter is blocking parts of this sites functionality. Just wanted to say hi!

hello mate welcome

Hello from me as well, I’m still trying to work out SGV as to where you’re at. I bet it’ll be so bloody obvious when we find out.

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,and welcome back, that’s some hiatus :mrgreen:

Hi all, back in the garage again working on the Bay after several years off. Hopefully I will get it back on the road this time (69 Devon).

Brilliant, you can come on here any time for some encouragement to keep it going. So where are you with it now? And do you have some sort of plan ? Or order of works? 69 Devon sounds great, maybe some pictures. Plus ,,do you have a name for this Bay?

Ozziedog,,,,,,,, first steps and all that ! :mrgreen:

Evening all,
Here's my latest bus.
