The new " what have you done to your bay today " thread

Cheers

 

Yay! Congratulations, another one returned to the road.

 

Thanks, just been for a drive its a bit noisy with and empty rear. I'm sure I could hear every tappet I have never looked out for smoke or listened for strange noises so much in my life

 

Iv'e left it out in the rain over night on purpose I want to find out if the pop top leaks now it has new seals etc before a) the new interior is fitted and b) I'm not sleeping in it

 

Great news.

 

Thanks Lofty

 

loving that poptop2! glad to see youve still got wood at your age!!


I received my new/old genuine Devon cab bunk in the post! HAPPY DAYS!! Thanks Turkish !!

 

Thats looking great malc

Did you know in the days of old the final finishing and sanding would have been achieved using dogfish skin

 

Your little camper is coming on great what finish will you do or will you make it look like yours.

 

Put my steering wheel on straight took it of the other day when having trouble with ignition,
Had a senior moment forgot I had moved the van, put wheel back on then went for a drive and when going in a straightish as you can in a bay line, the bars were at 5 past 7,
So now it's fixed, now straight is between 10 past 8 and 20 past 10',

 

Drilled and taped the rocker covers , plumbed in the breather thats been in the engine bay for two years.
Cleaned out the fuel filter , washed the air air filters .
and remade the spare wheel carrier to take an alloy instead of the wrong size spare i carried all last year.

 

checked the windscreen as it was raining and not as cold and the leak that was letting in water 6 weeks ago appears to have sealed itself

 

got some small blue screw caps to hold on my door cards as they keep coming loose when you shut the door.

 

checked the tension on the cover straps...

 

Added more to the list for when I get some ramp time, A4 sheet so far.

 

Fitted my retro (read that as naff expensive plastic) reading lamp and fuel tank sender seal. And tomorrow I brim it to see if it leaks and then treat the bus to a new Alpine head unit with remote control. I can't be doing all this getting out of bed when I want the Archers on.
