Sam's 67 1500 pt.1 - Its back on the road!

Over the last 6 years we have done very little work in very short stints! Sam has decided to get us motivated and do something everyday.
When we bought the car is was torn apart with several holes through the panel under the back seat/battery and all the headlining stripped off. It did come with the original towel rail bumpers rechromed and a new panel for under the back seat. Thanks!
Below is how it came to us








 We did the battery tray and cut out the panel under the rear window. Sam doing a bit of welding here!





There should be a panel to stop you seeing this view!

Thats about as far as we got....

Andrew's Westy gets Wishbones and a stripe!

Andrew has just been to Manflowers for his fitting...he knidly send us a picture and comments!
Hi Simon,


I would just like to email and tell you how my van is following the suspension and brake upgrade.

It handles so well and gives me so much more confidence in approaching bends and junctions.

Not going to be going too fast with the standard 1600 engine in, but definitely better at maintaining speed in the turny bits.

Lee at Manflowers sorted the bus in quick time as he said he would. Despite prepping for Busfest that week.

Closing for International Show Duties!



We have finally given in to pressure from our European cousins, to come and show them our goods! So we are away attending Shows on the European continent so the Works will be closed from the 7th of June until the 2nd of July.
We’re not sure what mobile/email coverage we will have, so if you need anything it would be best to email the normal address on the ‘Contact’ page and we will get back to you on our return.

Chris' Super Crew Cab






Chris sent us a great couple of  pics of his crew cab..its got an EZ rider coilover conversion.

We do like a Crew Cab!

here's what he had to say...
I bought your EZ Rider Coil Over kit from yourselves some months ago and with the summer coming I managed to get it fitted. And I must say what an easy job it was to do. A couple of hours in the garage and its transformed my bay crew cab. Ive recently drove my VW over some winding country roads and the ride and control was fantastic and to say I had a smile on my face was an understatement. So again I say thank you and by far the best money i've spent on the van so far.
