I'll kick start this off then, have own my Van for 2 years now and have always wanted to post it up in VOTM, but until now felt it was never really mine as all the work was done by the previous owner.
Although I can pretty much say I have now put my Stamp on it. so here it is;

so as requested a few more pics;
This was taken at my first ever VW Show after I had swapped the Bus for my 911 and although the weather was Crap the Surprise made up for it a Rosette, Top 10 Bus slot Brighton Breeze 2010.
This is what the Bus looked like when I got it.
This was last year at Big Bang after I had had the front rebuilt and Dropped spindles fitted. Although I like the wheels when I got them was never going to keep them as i had other plans.
and a few interior shots to wet the appetite; again I have pretty much re done this less the wood work, as the colour when I collected it was Grey. I think the cream and Brown checked cloth work a little better and now I have added a dash of red, in the wheels and the curtain when fitted are red checked.
I have recently fitted a straight axle kit with the help of some friends and hope to fit safari windows before the summer. then i'll turn my attention to my Beetle.

Yeah currently sitting on the Steels and Whitewalls, I always think the wheels finish a Bus and I don't think you can beat Steels and Hub Caps on a Bus.
Many thanks for your VOTE

As we need another van here is mine, I hope you like:
This is "Buster". Porsche 365 wheels.
He has a John Maher 2110cc 145 BHP heart.
When we were in France last year.
I've been working on the interior since May last year.
IRS with Rancho box and disc brakes front and rear, he is a lot of fun
Cheers, Will
