Mk1 LWB Ex-Feuerwehr Camper Conversion

[Luke]

not even driven it since transitmania

been too busy with other stuff i was thinking about it the other day after the bonfire meet it would have been nice to have this done to use- i do miss having my camper

[Luke]

not exactly an update

but i still have the enthusiasm for this and will get it done.... one day the MOT's ran out so next step is to get that back on, the problem with the fuel draining back to the tank i'm hopeing to overcome with a 1 way valve in the line, i got one and fitted it (the correct way ) i had a go today at starting it - i put compressed air into the tank filler neck as someone was turning it over - the same way ive been starting it ever since i had the problem last year but this time it decided to blow the fuel pipe off the top of the tank
so 1 more job on the list

i'll keep the updates coming

I do like a good challange, I would like to think my V6 will be in... sometime in the future

[Luke]

got it running again today the problem with the petrol leaking back to the tank was the flexi pipe from the tank to the main fuel line i've replaced it tempararly with some flexihose but i'll fit some proper petrol pipe later next week

but at least it starts, drives etc. now

[samson]

nice one

[madmark]

so should be easy moved around now for the conversion

[MONSTER 0NE]

at last some progress on one of your projects

[Luke]

just generally getting it ready for the MOT - new wiperblades and new halogen headlights to replace the sealed beams

it should be ok to go now but it needs 2 bits of welding on the sills, i dont think it's needed for the MOT but i'd like to do it before i take it and i've got 2 new sills so i might aswell do them both

i've also took the search light, blue light and ladders off the roof - when the welders out i'll weld up the old holes (if your interested in the ladder they are on ebay £10 2 days left)

anyway here's a latest pic
