Aircooled VW South Africa

Hi
I decided to start this thread. Perhaps it will help me progress a little faster. I bought this westy in Estcourt basically by accident. I went to have a look at a bay DC that was no longer there and start talking to the neighbour and he told me about a camper(thought jaja) but go and have a look. It was not for sale, but one thing lead to a nother and after afew weeks I bought it. Getting it registered in my name was another thing. Still no COR.

Geez,Garet,that looks like a awesome find.How's the bodywork and interior?

HOLY MOLY I`m one yelous puppy that is one sweet find tent and all

The bus need some attention mostly surface rust. Need repacement panels under side doors. All the interior is there, need TLC. Need the stove, even got the 60's porta potty.

Thats nice definately a Rose to keep and cherish

I would so sell the Mrs for that westy.....................lol.

Lowlight, you have some stunning cars

he also has a few others that he hasn't shown yet..........

So come on bro pls tell

This weekend that was I did some sanding and paining, that is primer just to stop the rust. Still a lot more to go.

Started on the brakes this weekend. dirty leaking and.........
got the shoes rebonded today, bought the kits for the wheel cylinders awhile back,
tonight started cleaning all the parts.

I got brake pipes as the old ones didnt look to good. One was actually blocked.



Assemble the one side.Almost forgot to check the adjusters.

always looking good.

Oooooooh that looks SO GOOD!!!

Can't wait to see this Bus myself!

Did some more sanding, have to do a lot more sanding!
