Hi guys
The Xmas holiday is sorted then, got all my panels delivered this week for my camper so starting Xmas eve it's in the shop at work ( i work at a garage that does aircooled VW's and the boss has let me do it) and whack all the panels in! 4 arches, all the outriggers, two back chassis legs and cross member,plus sills and inner sills. It's as bad as it sounds it's just that i only want to do it once. Reckon four days to panel it lads! It is my trade you know.There might be a pic on here if i can upload it. The camper is a 73 Devon and this one i am definately keeping.

Been a while since i posted on here, after losing my job and having to move the bus i am back on the case! Just put it on my rolling frame bowled it over and gone for gold. Two new back chassis legs and a rear crossmember in today and n/s inner sill and outriggers for tommorrow. Will load all the pics tommorrow night left the camera down the barn. Hoping to get it finished for the summer complete with an airbed in the back for this year.
cheers for now biggles
