  1. Looking good. I shall have to keep an eye out for your shiny blue bus around Brizzle.
    Chris & Baysearcher, are you going to Busfest and/or the Berkeley VW Show?

    Cheers mate!
    I don't do shows. Much prefer the beach to a field full of old vans!

    It is fair to say I have firmly fallen back in love with my bus.
    :D

    Unbelievable!
    It's just a shame I'm sat in traffic.
     
  8. I guess that gives you the chance to see the cooling system in action.

    Works a treat. Sat in traffic it sits at about 60 degrees, off the top of the speedo (70 mph officer) 80 degrees.
    I've honestly never smiled so much driving the van. I hate this word but it is awesome!!
    Photos later when I've stopped driving it!

  12. Excuse my ignorance, what's the box thingy in the last picture?

    Its the heater from the scooby plumbed into the original heating ducts to the windscreen. Works a treat!

    That looks wicked!

    It's interesting how different yours is to mine - my heater box is up front, just behind the deformation panel and I have a different expansion tank - is yours the later smooth cam cover engine?

    Yep, its the stage 2 so smooth cam covers. Not sure what year as I left all the info behind! Going up next week to pick up my old engine so I'll find out then!
    Has yours got the stainless header tank? They use plastic ones now for some reason.

    Yes - but I think the location of yours is better (looks like the original scoobie one) as mine is where the leisure battery would be - also, you can't check the level as easily when its not transparent.

    Baysearcher [secret moderator]

    Yep, I thought checking the level in a stainless can would be a bit tricky.
    I am so pleased with it its ridiculous!
