My new T25 Camper

Well got ymself a camepr. I know its the late bay forum but thoguh i'd do a mini build thread anyway for it even if its a T25

Dont think my great dane would fit as well in a bay lol

Here some pics of how it stands and now on my drive

On the hunt for a proper original interior and got alot of welding to get sorted

Got inner sills and outer arches for it now and some mroe bits to order















No idea what the pop top is if anyone has any idea

 

Be interesting to watch the resto on this, even if it's a t25.

You'll enjoy the hunting for parts that never seem to be in stock as well

 

luckily i got the last left habnd genuine inner sill from work before they went not available lol

luckily apart from complete front arches ive not had any trouble. yet lol

posted on here as yoru a lovely bunch. club 80-90 seem very cold adn clicky

 

Nice one Anna.....I'm also looking forward to your resto thread.
Those 80-90 chaps aren't so bad when you get to know them,they are quite helpful but not as cuddly as us folk on here!

 

Good luck Anna
No idea on the roof

 

yeah there is a few nice people on there. Prob cos ive not been on there long. takes a while to get involved and get to know people sometimes although some forums are very much mroe welcoming than others. This and mk2vr6.com being 2 of the best

put more parts on order today

loving the fact new wing mirrors are only £3.51 with staff discount even if they are repro lol

 

Well done Anna - £3.51! Maybe I have the wrong vehicle after all that...

 

welcome to the late late bays owners club... O0

I did notice it on 80-90, I swing both ways...

Love the colour... ;D

 

Looks good. If everything goes to plan I'll be having a T25 next week.

 

people are obviously not taking their medication....

 

cheers guys.

Im not sure on the colour. not sure what to do with it probably leave it for now

Looks like i found a devon interior but its a long way from me to get it :-(

 

So spent the whole day working on the camper today

First tinted my new rear windows before fitting



Stripped right out















Re sealed the skylight and slighing windows as both were leaking and all the insulation and wood i pulled out was wet inside the panel

 

Pile of panels

 

Spent yesterday tinting the sliding window till i ran out of tint

Then sanding all the floors down adn taking off any surface rust before treating and primering for now.

Its coming along quicker than i expected at the moment lol im please with myself thought i'd need help stripping it as never done anythign like a van but it was surprisingly easy and ive got quite far in one weekend. i reckon a week doing a bit every night and the floors will be done

Goignt o stock up on paint and rust treatment at luncha dn more sealent as i need it for when i cut the rear windows out and put them in

 

Hi,

Looking like a good project to get stuck into. What did you use to tint the windows?

 

everyone has asked me about the windows. I sed a roll of film from ebay. I used dark smoke.

You have to use loads of sopapy water and make sure none of it sticks to itself then slowly scrape out all the bubbles without ripping it then obv trim

I also used a hair dryer to heat it when taking out bubbles to dry the water out instead of keeping using a rag to soak water touching the tint all the time

I love doing them find it easy so may start offering my services lol

 

They look awesome, I may well look into that, never really considered tinting the windows!

P.S Thanks for the help at work on the chat thingy sorting out my Starter Motor, Bus starts first time every time now!

 

thanks no worries

Only reason i tinted them i s i dont fancy sleeping in or chilling in there and lots of people nosing in at shows etc when your trying to treplax lol

i went for dark smoke as its fairly dark for people trying to look in but not dark enough that its hard to see out at night etc
