Zed, PM me your email address and i'll send you all the manuals for your eberspacher. I've got a B1L in my westy too.
This bus has so many dents it would be a shame to try and make a straight bus from it, though you could of course if you wanted to. I have yet to work out how I'll preserve it - some of the scratches are though to metal. Taking of dents, todays amusement in among the cleaning was getting the rear hatch to seal. It's had a knock so the middle of the hatch misses by a fair bit - about 15mm I thought I had a before pic so I didn't take one. Here's poor qualiy one though. I welded a strip of metal inside the opening and slide hammered it back out far enough. I could have gone the whole way, but I like a dent.
I decided in the end to permanently weld up the hot air tubes in the back before I paint and fit the floor. There won't be much above floor level as late bay floor panels slope up at the back instead of having a step to meet the rear panel. Cleaning, cleaning. I wish all the paint was like this inside. Floor fits well, so I did the bulkhead/b-post/sills in the corner OK
Your current headlining is in better condition than Redarmys', perhaps he'll buy it off you.? I'd PM him...
Mines long since in the bin. I couldn't get it off in one piece or it'd have been on Ebay. I have an aim of clean insides, clean underneath, clean engine/bay and crap bodywork. At last the floor is going in - I'll finish it tomorrow. That'll be wierd - my legs at knee height are a mass of purple bruises from playing hop-scotch in there...
Oh yes - nearly there. Just need to fix the 2 halves down the middle and weld to the rear..., and grind the plug weld flat on the high parts where the floor will sit, and across the front to fit the rubber trim bits to the bulkheads. And paint. And build the interior....
