D'oh! What happened?
Despite any engine troubles you've still got yourself a really sweet bus - Lee did good on this one! 8)
 
It got two issues. It gets a little to much fuel, and kind of problems with burning it off in the low rpm's...
And a classic one, dont know the english word for it, but you know - it wount turn the starter arount and then i knock a little bit on the starter, and then the starter turns again

Yes Lee did good, and im so incedible happy
 
Lee, you can get a proper early bay now. Was a beaut, but you got to keep the family fed and clothed.

TNT, how the hell could you understand what Lee was saying? or did you have a interpreter with you?

Eleccy windas n Mirras :shock:

Plans are to colour code the bumpers etc.
Fit alloys, lower the suspension & also fit side windows!
Then sell it & buy another one :D
 
Obviously, no one is really interested in an old builders van but,
I have been busy on it, if that counts???

It's a 1971 deluxe microbus with a westy poptop fitted a while back, it's got a 1600 type 1 motor & no interior.
It needs a bit of welding & mechanical work then I think I'll make it all straight & shiny this time round!!!!
Wish me luck!!! :D
 
Lee your like a one man vw soap opera!!

Pleased to see your back in though and looking forward to seeing your updates.

Good luck with it!!

Woz
 
Glad to see you've come back to the EB fold..!! Look forward to the build thread..!! :D
 
Cool to see that you're back with a really nice bay! :) What's your plan for it?
Best regards and happy new year!
Reto
 
Same to you and yours bud!!! :alc:

Plans are to let Carl, Tudor Rose on here, work his magic & get it running & driving, then Steve @ Restore & More is doing the welding for me, as long as I help him out on his buses at the same time!!
Sounds fair to me!!
Then down to Crash Magic so I can paint it up nice n straight & shiny!, 8)
Then interior etc register it etc.

It'll be for sale at any point during the resto if anyone is interested, pm me & I'll work out a price!!

I hope to turn a little bit of profit on this one & then on a couple more , THEN hopefully I'll have enough dosh to buy 2!?

One for selling on/ renting out & one for the family!!!

It's going to be a lot of work but it'll be worth it I hope & whoever buys this bus will be getting a good un!!!!

Wish me luck!!?!?!
