Hello all! My Sunday name is Steven but I prefer to be called Elvis. After a lifetime of longing, I finally bought myself a VW camper in March last year. Her name is Ruby and she's a '79 Westy in red and white. So far, I'm absolutely loving the experience and my other half and our two daughters are just as pleased. I live in Prestwick, Ayrshire and I hope to meet some of you at future VW events but I think I'm going to need some time to get to grips with the forum! Cheers, Elvis
Hello & Welcome from The Colonial Contingent Another Ayrshire lad here, born in Irvine & lived in Barr & Ayr before coming to Australia.
welcome! as mork says, it's not what it once was, more pic's and info would be good "Thank you very much"
Thanks for the welcome guys, I'm afraid I don't know an awful lot about the van. I do know that it was restored in 2008 and that it was previously yellow in colour. Any way I could try to find out more? The previous owner is a friend but he doesn't know much other than it's restoration date. Rickyrooo1 - nice stealthy Elvis reference!
I was going to do a welcome message with a load of Elvis titles thrown in, but I've looked up a list on wikipedia and there's so many and I really should be doing more useful things with my time! So just a normal welcome after all ... Welcome to the madhouse!
find the m plate and post a picture of it up, all will be revealed...... i will put a picture up later of what you're looking for if noone else does, it's a metal tag about 3cm x 6cm riveted to the heater duct behind the dash or the seat.
