VW T2 Bay Window 1600 Project

With the running cost and work required on the L322 Range Rover we decided part with it. It was a top spec version and really nice but needed some rear subframe work and had a steering lock that was reluctant to disengage. Unfortunately we had already sold the P38 Range Rover which although got a bit tatty was reliable. Without our towing car, which also doubled as our tip run car, the caravan had also to go with the idea of buying a small campervan.

Second hand 6-8 year old VWs were very tempting but still had a hefty price tag for something that was just occasional use. So here we are with a classic VW T2 bay. To avoid yet another complete restoration project, this one had to be useable without taking of the road for major work.

Looks shiny but will discover it's failings as we use it!

It was a bit of a risk as it had a nice paint job and I saw assured the bodywork was good. A bit of a poke around and it seemed ok but who knows what lurks under the shiny paint.

Interior had not been touched but that gives us the opportunity to make it how we want.
