    i'm torn, like original and standard height but i do like the look and wheels on the 2nd picture, whatever suits your own use is good.

    looks good, the fuchs go really well with the body colour!
     
  6. Sweet lookin great
     
  7. Enough to get into the garage! To be honest I've not measured it terribly accurately but its about 7 1/2 inches shorter than it was...
     
  8. I like'm both :)
     
  9. Nice bus I like it before & after. Is it a Riviera?
     
  10. Should handle better as well now, nice job.

  12. It was originally a Safare camper from California, but I don't think the roof is the original one. There's nothing in the interior other than a full-width rock and roll bed - I think the original interior was lost when it was shipped to Europe ...
    As for lowering it still further - I think you would need to go for something a bit more radical - I've got low-profile tyres on the front and its about as low as you can get without the tyre impacting on the wheel arch ...
     
  13. And it definitely handles so much better!
