Id be quite interested depending on rust and how complete it is as parts are tuff to find. Pm me a ball park and some pics if you can. Cheers Ev

The Dato! One of my mates spotted it too, good parts car!!

I got into it again today, got the roof all tacked in and corners, would b good if the autocraft corners just welded in, bit of mucking around on the left side, still have he rear piece to do then the slow job of welding it all up, prity happy with my self so far, also got my new camper cupboards dropped of that where going in my bay, charcole grey and brush stainless, so il be modifying them for the panel, ruff as guts outside new inside!

Floor removed, I think il be making my own, cheap out on it and use chequer plate. Repo floor is expensive,

[Kendall]

Checker plate isn't cheap either( classic vee dub do a complete floor for$475?) plus I assume the ribs give strength front to back

I'm taking a week of work to smash the body work, I'm wanting it on the road by summer

"I" beams and top hats are cheap and chequer plate is 4 x heavier than a repo floor , get one from cip1 when they have a special and it will only cost $800 for a full lhd rear floor delivered ..great job on the roof btw

It's been sitting and waiting but I didn't think it's been that long since I posted, life gets away from you
Time to get this bus finished, just moved to a new house with room to finish this build so I picked her up today
Big change in what I wanted to build with this bus, I have a new low bus coming from the states the samba is on its way to being laid out on bags. Iv taken some inspiration from pages I'm following on instagram, Cam Biscuit's trip was good to follow so I'm keeping this bus high and drivable, I'm removing to roof again and putting on a pop top, after driving my other panel as a camper for the last year, made me miss my bay poptop camper

Good to see this forum moving again

Good to see another VW joining the newly formed #raiseyourshit club!
