We are booking club camping for Bug Jam this year, any one wanting to camp with us as a club must have pre booked tickets. Once you have booked your tickets you'll need to give spike a call with a few details so we can get numbers sorted and club passes allocated.

what we have been up to in the workshop ..

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 00:00:08 +0200

we have 2 splits in at the moment for resto work ,
alex's van is a 66 italian bus that has now been blasted and primed and we are about to start welding . this is not as bad as it looks as no previous repairs to sort out . once body done the suspension will be lowered and the engine sorted then m.o.t.ed
Mark H's is a 67 devon which came in for jacking points and sill work and once started it needed a lot more !!! this splitty was meant to have been done 7 years ago . problem is they used stonechip and filler to repair it so hence now she needs lots done properly. it always gets me why people waste there time doing such bad repairs which fall apart after a short time and are not safe for the users of the vans. Mark's van had 3 outer sills and 2 inner sills , 2 cargo floors and i could continue but you get the picture . once we have finished the body she will have csp disc kit and a few other jobs done .
we have had a few other vans in for lowering and other jobs as well in the last month ,
Kerry's split the blue and white split with raders and creative adjusters fitted to beam straight axle back . we have welded one jacking point and protected her from the english roads underneath.
Paul's t25 pick up came in for lowering and service .
Rosies beetle was in for engine rebuild .
Stef and Al's van had lowering job and engine rebuild .White bay window called Paddy . looks good with Aussie sunvisor .
also we sold a 1970 blue bay window deluxe to Ian from kent so that has been lowered and what ever else it needed to be good to go.

we have also had to move yard so 20 + vans and all the spares and a 6 van carport had to all be moved to new yard!!!!!!
