I've never seen one of those before. Good luck with it mate, looks like there's a fair bit to do on her.

When are you going to find time to sleep?
Thought that bay looked rare, not sure I've seen one of those tops before - if only 1 of then probably not!

Are you looking to fit a completely new interior, engine etc etc?? That's going to cost £££

the engine is still in. im prob just going to rebuild it. Il put a new interior in it myself, i can do all the cushion covers and curtains myself. Bay campers seem to fetch crazy money at the minute so its worth doing right

yeah well my actual trade is upholsterer but ive also done a few years on mechanics on air cooled vws. My brother is a paint sprayer and does bodywork, plus im ok with welder so hopefully it shouldnt cost too much. I cant believe the money that these campers make, its just crazy. I would never spend that sort of money on one personally

Had just about everything aircooled so was time for a change onto water. Only problem is I don't know how to work on them
It's all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits
