Great thread 16vmini

I was going to ask about the tailgate too, they do lower inner/outer repair panels for the sliding door so was looking for rear ones too, guess a new door is easier/cheaper.

i have a bottom part of a good tail gate that i bought of ebay , so thinking repairing the rear tail gate is the way to go.

allthough still think a new sliding door is in order.

Just done 600 odd miles in the last 4 days . Yorkshire and around , had a great time , stayed on a working farm.

Yeh we have a green one!

money sent to RJES for all the parts i need..
picked up a manual flywheel and starter motor for the scooby engine , just need to purchase a VW clutch plate.

anyway .,. the moss on the poptop got to me , so out came the cif and hose pipe :

before :



halfway



and turned around to do other side



missed the horsham meet today , sorry guys.

thinking of making up some sort of fibre glass roof box to fit into the westy hole on front roof....

Westfalia made a waterproof bag that is designed to fit, usefull for table, chairs etc,was originally designed to hold westy awning, come up on german E bay .

ordered a computer 120mm fan to replace the current noisy fridge fan :


got some time to remove the fridge today , did not take long now i have done it once before ,
very surprised the current motor still worked :


wired and mounted the new fan in the same place , sticks out a bit more , but seems to miss the side of the bus ok :





although after putting it all back , and testing the fridge is seems like the air flow is not as much , VERY quiet , cant hear it unless i put my ear on the vent.
but it seems to be allways running once the fridge gets hot at the back

so .. i either need to :

1) not worry ! lol
2) fit a better flowing fan
3) try and fit a 2nd fan further up the back of the fridge

thinking of going route 3 at the moment. , well 1 for now then 3

also i have bought a replacement sliding door , current door has allot of rust at the bottom , also has a major dent / scrape in the side ... so just simpler and nicer to find a better donor.

collected my wiring loom now, so i can now get on with stripping out the 6 ECU's that i dont need


and bought a LHD sliding door with practically no rust, so a quick rub down then slap some red onto it :

box of goodies turned up from rjes today !

current engine has started to drip oil .... not sure what to do. .. did not want to rush the engine change before i go to france ... wife would kill me if it goes wrong ! lol

still need a 228mm clutch plate
