well what are after cos there's a stack of info on them in my interiors book from way back and a shortened version of that chapter was in SSVC mag in 2016 if you pm me your email I can send you word file of that, its about a calthorp roof model but has lots of generic stuff about EC who produced the...

This for those not on Facebook! A huge indoor display Hall at Bruntingthorpe proving ground packed with only AIR COOLED VWs + big car park with loads of buses (all generations) beetles ghias notch and fast backs and more - now that's what I call a proper show Well done to Grant Gorre Best Bus in sho...

Just dropped in on VF for a couple of hours to check out how tech weekend going... Talking to first timers and people who have been several times before all totally agreed on how useful it is and especially giving confidence to try stuff in a supportive environment.
