My new ride will need lots of help !!!!

Hello & Welcome from The Colonial Contingent

 

hello mate good luck with the van.

 

Hi and welcome from East Anglia - where are you based as there is bound to be someone local that can offer assistance.

 

Welcome aboard!
Nice looking blank canvas and nice choice of colour but then I am biased

 

Hi welcome to TLB. I too looked at your bus at Stanford Hall and thought how nice it was.

 

Going to be a fun project with a blank canvas. Don't forget to use the search feature on here - it's not the best but it does usually come up with info you need

 

Hi There I am based in Melton Mowbray

 

Cheers

 

Hello, not a bad start that, very nice

 

Thanks for the info. I was wondering what thickness of ply to use. Also do the seatbelt Anchor points have to be welded in, as mine was a Panel van and didnt come as standard

 

I've looked at Madmatz and had some samples sent, they look good

 

Cool, only 40 ish mile away.
You'll find some very informative guys and girls on here that aren't too far from you - I'm unfortunately not one of them as I'm still very green!

 

welcome aboard

you will be on the doorstep for tekenders nr leicester....[sept]

 

Howdy nice bus, plenty of opportunities.

 

Cheers Ian
Its going to be a rolling project and as I save more pennies more will get done

 

Nice ride and great to start with a blank canvas sometimes. Welcome

 

Hello from Cheshire, yes you would want the seat belt mountings welding in, nice bus.

 

If your just having lap belts no welding is needed
As the mounts fit on the opposite side of the panel to the seatbelts you can bond them into place or pop rivit them
Its only to hold them into place if you undo the bolts so they dont drop to the floor

 

Welcome aboard the good ship TLB, if your new to campers the Sept Techenders.

We're in North Leicester & have relatives in and around Melton.

Are you going self build interior or having one built, have you got a bed for the back? If not there's a guy called @rustylee on here who makes them we fitted one in the Robowagen

 

Cheers

Is just a matter of cutting a plate out welding the seat belt bolt onto the plate and then stitching it back ? Is there a how to on this forum ?
