He's Back! Now the work starts!

Bertie is back from the lovely Karl, so the work starts!

Engine is out for a spruce up, and the engine bay, and the million other things. Keep you posted!

 

looks sweet buddy!

 

Nice colour, now the fun starts putting all back together. Enjoy!

 

That's very nice

 

Love the colour

 

Looks great- the rebuild is good fun - apart from doing the cab doors. Enjoy

 

Now the real fun starts!

 

looking good!

 

nice bus buddy !!

 

Excellent colour scheme, keep us all posted with updates

 

Looks great, shortest restoration thread ever!

 

Looks nice!! Is it a Viking?

 

Very nice

 

Yep, a Super Viking. This won't be the most detailed resto thread as I always forget to take pictures, but will do my best to add a few as I go along.

Jobs:
Spruce up engine
Spruce up engine bay
Clean/underseal underneath (all the welding I'd done a good few years ago so all strong.)
Repair and paint Viking roof
New canvas bellows
New interior (downstairs Viking kit and cushions all available when I get round to putting them in classifieds.....)
New camping electrics/lighting
Clean up dash

And 1000 other bits.....

Bertie is pretty good mechanically after years of TLC and maintenance so this will be a refresh mechanically rather than a full rebuild.

 

Know what you mean - I've rebuilt cab doors about three times over the years, but this time.....Karl did it for me!

 

Wow, what a perfect Van. Congrats. Now you just have to remember where all that "stuff goes" LOL

 

Nice colour scheme Nice & straight too. Enjoy putting it all back together!

Looking forward to updates.

 

That looks a nice summery colour

 

Nice primer what color you gonna paint it?

 

Thinking about matt grey.....
