Yeah it is, come along next year, you may not be converted but i'm sure you'll apreciate alot of the stuff that's being done to alot of the Buses... it's good atmosphere too and i'm sure someone will thrust a beer into your hand

Yeah I'm well stoked with them. The collection of rusty VW bits in the lounge is getting bigger

Good hunting Steve, I have just bagged a set from the States. Not cheap!

Cheers Jon. Gutted I missed out on the set Java had for sale at Vanfest.

Managed to get down the beach at sunset to take a few snaps after a burn round the south downs today

Nice pictures Ego mate you could do with some new indicator lenses bud
Will look proper on it with the addition of the overiders and a rusted up VW on the front son
This bus is one worth looking out for next year , subtle changes but will make alot of difference :bounce:

Yeah the small updates along with getting the interior sorted will finish it off nicely

Gotta ditch that tow bar as well

As it was nice and dry i went for a cruise in mine today too, always puts a smile on your face after a few weeks of not driving them

As for the towbar i may well be able to sort you out a trade for a nice patina'd rear bumper without a towbar as one of my customers wants a towbar mainly for a bike rack which that one would suit just fine...

Nice one Tim I'll be up for the trade. I'll be up in Sheffield over Christmas so may drop by. Any chance of squeezing in a quick gearbox conversion

if it helps guys i'll be in chesterfield for boxing day and a couple of days after if you want a go between man. :face:

Nice pics....it seems the season to be.....out in your early bays. I have been taking advantage of every dry day too. Why do these buses put such a smile on our faces?

I'll contact the man and see what he says on the bumper...

sounds like you'll be passing by on the way up or down so yeah it'd be cool if you drop in... not so shure on a quick gearbox conversion though

Good to see you and the bus today dude!

Cheers for the roadhouse coffee Tim
I'll have a bit more time on my next visit to peruse the fine buses and Moon gear you've got there.

Spot the new upgrade...

Ooooooo yeah dude , Patina on the badge works a treat ,

Yeah that looks much better... well patina'd

Cheers chaps

i just left it in the bathroom with some salt on it for a week, then sprayed it lightly, put some more salt on and left it in the bathroom again for a couple of days to bring the rust back through the paint, then ankor waxed it. Brushing the wax on helped dull the white down too.

Just got to get the overiders on now.....

and the rest of the interior :shock:

Some new artwork for the bus...



skate and destroy

You must have been saving them for a while......I want the Have you seen him one (Animal Chin....cool)

Yeah that Animal chin one is cool, where'd you get it?

they are all from www.skateboardstickers.co.uk

some are NOS, some are new. The animal chin one is a re-issue from a few years ago. Buy three stickers and you get some more free too! It easy to spend way too much money on there. I had to cut my order in half as I was getting a bit carried away :shock:

You damn sticker freek Ego`
