Hi, Just started thinking about geting panels to fix up my late bay. And after taking a good look at her i have realised that it's going to be rather big job and need so many panels it's proberly easy to say what panels i dont need lol. To try and reduce the hugh big bill of buying panels if you have any t2 late bay panels (mines a 73) hanging around you want to get rid of name your price and P M me please. If your going to do a job you might as well do all of it.. just some of the panels i'm going to need are. front panel (complete including air box) lower defomantation inside front panel wheel arch complete including step X2 nearside and offfside sills x2 rear arches x2 rear lower quaters x2 battery tray x2 window tracks window repair sill cab floor half outriggers (all off) cab doors x2 engine bay lid (hinge type) seals (all)
Hi, my friend has a late bay poptop, import from the USA, no welding needed at all, it is dry as a nut, only a couple of dents need sorting,all the doors are spot on, no panel repacing, unless you are welding the bus up yourself it could run into thousands to get the job done the right way, and it will be with repair panel that are made up of not so good steel, never as good as genuine Volkswagen parts. With protection this bus will last another 30 years!!! Maybe worth think about, swap your camping interior over and your motor and your ready to go,save the time/hassle and ££££. Sell whats left of your bus to someone ebay ) In Rayleigh Essex, can get it delivered. thanks
Hi Gary, Matts e[mail is matthew.hardy@blueyonder.co.uk the bus has all the running gear except the motor, all the electrics work, poptop is nice, even has good tyres, he has three other buses on the go, and needs to free up some space. Drop him an e-mail and get your bus on ebay,someone out there will love it Good luck with your bus if you do decide to do the metal work.
