The Split Screen Van Club

Has it had a new front panel? It looks like there's a fair bit of filler in there. The seam at the edge of the panel should have sharp corners where yours looks like its had a smear of filler. The flat section under the window should have a sharper corner too. Have a close look at some of the pictur...

Well done Sam, looks like a brilliant weekend. I'm sure we can leave the kids and the dogs behind . Any idea what the prices are like?

There always seems to be too much rubber with new seals. I had a set of repro seals (not Schofields) that were so thick I had to split them lengthwise to get them to fit. If you close the doors without the seals from inside the van you will hopefully see how much gap you have between the door and th...

Are the floats in the float chamber set and working right? The fuel level in the chamber is critical and would be effected by the van facing down a steep hill.

When you say ' on a steep road' does it matter if you are facing uphill or down ? Does it happen on the flat at all? Is the fuel level in the float chamber correct?

The studs are available from most of the usual suppliers, if it's the stud rather than the case that's suffered with age then it's an easy replacement next time you change the oil.

Bears Motorsport in Solihull. I can't get onto their website but they should be worth a phone call.

No surprises there. Does anyone talk to you at petrol stations? Does anyone take your photo at traffic lights or on the motorway? Does anyone say my Dad/Uncle/mate's Dad/neighbour had one of those when I was a kid..

Email sent, not sure if they are as rough as you want though...

Having trouble posting pics, do you want to pm me an email address?

How rough? I've got half a dozen decorating the man cave. If your near Redditch you're welcome to come and see if they're what you want.

To quote Donald, the club website server crashed bigly. The biggest crash there's ever been. All posts from September 18th to the about a week ago were lost. Were yours in that lot ?
The new server is being brought into service and this shouldn't happen again.

Regretfully as said above the server crashed and everything this side of September 19th was lost. The new server is apparently much better so this shouldn't happen again. Sorry for any inconvenience, but if you want to repost your advert then please go ahead. I've got about 30 memberships I need to ...

A little free play at the pedal ? You need an inch at the pedal.

CamperJam is heaven on earth for the T4/T5 owner. I went for the day a couple of years ago and at about 10.30 mine was the only split on the car park. Tatton Park is better with a large autojumble area, unfortunately it's only a one day show with no camping.
