    Welcome aboard!! :)
     
  7. Rick, It depends which number plate I choose to use though - the actual one or the one etched on the windows - my van has a stealth mode don't you know! Or a split personality!?!

    well, that plate checks as dead so I imagine the 2 pieces of glass in the van with the different reg on were from a scrapper, you're safe it's probably not a ringading
     
  11. Nice bus - I like Earlies but prefer Lates. Yours looks a good 'un welcome along :)
     
  12. Thank you all for the comments (aside from the threats of burning and that my bus is a ringer)
     
  13. I prefer to say it was the first hybrid. You can forget you Prius and the like. Mine is a hybrid of an prototype bay, Cali doors, Brazilian front, lawn mower carb, JCB side window. Bob was ahead of his time....

  14. Rick, I ordered new 5.6mm R9 fuel hoses yesterday - redoing he fuel line and moving the filter again as discussed. MOT tomorrow at garage only 1/2 mile away (couldn't get hold of Moley?) - the guy said its fine to MOT even if it won't idle. Having said that he has worked on quite a few VW's before and is going to do some tuning and get the carb running properly before he MOT.

    Also found myself cleaning the engine bay yesterday - can help but think this s a pointless task on an engine this old!?!

    Tuesday wildchild I'm a circle!

    Nice tidy looking but shame about that rather common colour on it.:D
     
  18. It actually changes colour automatically! If you drive it around for a few months it changes to a grey version of orange. Then if you throw water at it - piff paff puff its orange again. As I said, Bob is way ahead of his time!

  19. Hi Birdie, fellow newcomer. It seems you just have to just have a good grasp of irony and sarcasm and site works easily.
