The amazing Restoration of... Ethel the T25 Karmann Gypsy!

Oh! just remembered it's Tuesday (better known as picking up roof day)

Thought Bern would have known that

 

No today was fit new oak worktops to a kitchen

 

So you haven't picked it up



and oak isn't tarmac

 

I can see a reflection of the tarmac bus

 

Rolled it up and put it in your van

 

Worth picking it up as they wanted a lot to deliver and I don’t think they would send it through DHL

 

Spotted the way home on Sunday

You must be a very slow driver since all those vans overtook you.

 

Gotta love that merc sticker

Leave me room or

Uther vise I vill bash you vis my step

 

Geordie, How much did the ally for the roof set you back?

 

Nothing. He swapped it for a tarmac job

 

£580 7m x 2.1m painted
Delivery £205 plus vat
Cheaper to pick it up.
Got to shape it and cut it down to approximately 2050mm not looking forward to that.

 

Friday night in South Manchester it’s rocking?

Bus out/ tools out = blooming rain!

Flat battery = push bus in garage

= tools in garage

Wait for it = stops raining!

Anyway did a bit more

Never mind the rain Geord
It's the wind that you gotta worry about
When rolling that roof oot
But better without either
Take your time

 

@monkeyvanwestybike
Got a plan for that thinking of using webs front to back either side.

Loose just to stop it flying away?

 

First and last time I do upholstery anyway that’s the new ply down

@monkeyvanwestybike
Question please
Once I’ve cladded the sides and fit the roof what overlap would you advise been told 5mm ?

 

You’re a very clever man Andy

 

2 foot should do it
