Thought you'd had a nasty accident there for a moment!! :lol:

I was about to say "HELP I can't work out how to vote!" then I remembered you have to sign in!
You should get this moved to the top of the forum so more people see it, looks like Gerry needs the votes!

I thought I would add some more pics of my bus, it's a 1966 Devon Caravette that I have owned for a couple of years.

Almost complete 66 Devon interior with the addition of some 65 door and rear cupboards as I haven't found any 66 ones yet but if you've got some in your garage let me know!

I spy the daily

Dudley cooker, Easicool (missing the badge) and Whale pump, I also have the Easico light which will go up when I get the headlining done this year.

Before I managed to mess up the engine it was out every weekend and used for all our holidays, near and far, camping or not.

Now it tends to look a lot like this......

And the engine like this......

But new block arriving next Monday, hopefully driving by Tuesday.

Thanks for looking and voting, good luck to all!
