  10. Looks like a cracking engine, not surprised it sold quickly! I'll have to make my mind up whether to keep it original with a type 4 or put a type 2 in.
     
  11. Ta, I managed to pickup a section from a scrapped van which had the 'bulge' in it otherwise that would have been a nightmare to sort.

    I think I've managed to negotiate with the missus to get more time on the van over the winter :chewie:

  12. obviously this is a lie.... never trust anyone who says 'you can trust me'.:eek:

    and 'sensible' is a completely subjective term. life on TLB will teach you critical analysis and absolute cynicism, enjoy! :D

    Hi from the middle bit of the island, and from the non VW contingent. Yes, they let anyone in :-D
     
  15. Welcome from eastish to you, near Durham.
    Finally, a bus with more rusty bits than mine! Great work you're doing there. :)
     
  16. there used to be a aircooled vw scrappy near tebay on the m6. If you manage to find them, can you ask if the have an indicator stalk and a door roller for a 73. ta.
     
  17. Find and fit a Subaru engine, you wont regret it.
     
  18. I've committed to type 4 :)

    Managed to find a set of oem heat exchangers, pipes, pods and a aux fan in used but excellent condition.

    Not much more than degrease and paint needed :D
