    Nice work Lisa even though there are holes and bits of rot, Trevor looks in better condition underneath than mine - should have taken photos this morning. 15 yr old Trannys weren't built as well as 70s Vee Dubs.

    No such luck for using a ramp for mine,but at least I can be off the road on the drive. I can fit under it without ramps, just.

  6. It’ll get there. After doing my bug twenty years ago and the camper a few years after that, I think I’d forgotten the satisfying feeling of working on them.

    It’s all coming back to me now. :)

    Nice one Lisa (I’m saying Ermintrude still in my head!)

    You may inspire me to work on my van :)
     
  8. I’m still Ermintrude in my head too. I think this is merely an interruption and normal service will resume :)

    Do it! I’m enjoying it and it’s so nice to work on it again. I’ve already started thinking about getting the bug sorted next too *eek*

    I think you’ve got plenty enough on your plate without worrying about pics. If you get some, great, but don’t sweat it :thumbsup:
