My 76 Bay/Split Project

[Golfmad]

I also had the same issue - tank guage not working anymore, so had an aftermarket tank float and dashboard mounted guage fitted. I am not too happy with it, doesnt work so well, its too moody and jumps up and down as I take corners etc....

But I guess its better than running out of the go-go juice all the time.

but ill try to stay positive (((im sure ill find another standerd sender unit))) if not ill try to open the 1 i have and play Mcgyver with it !!

i have a question regarding the front indicators on the bus

i have seen a bus with clear lenses with the orange globes ((couldnt stop him as i was on the other side of the road))

does any1 know where can i get a set of those ?? ....they realy look cool

[jolas]

Those lenses are readily available, I have a pair on my westy which the previous owner put on, I don't know who you can try up your way, Volksieshop perhaps, or else I could try Dave Rowley for you ?

(By the way it is "cargo doors" not barn doors on the side of the Brazilia and split busses, the very early splits had a longer than usual engine hatch which is referred to as a "barn door" )

Nice bus, I really like the look of the small rear hatch
Like buggyfan said its illegal to have people in the back of a panel, its on my disk aswell. But hey I have never been pulled over with my bus.
My fuel gauge is also very jumpy, I do have a short somewhere as the battery is always flat so I think it might be the reason as its not earthing correctly.

regarding the cargo doors .....yes i saw pics of busses with barn doors that was crarified on the (ask stupid questions thread)

Regarding pasangers in the bus ......the guy that done my stuff somhow got it with my disk allowing 5 pasangers sitting and 0 standing

Got stoped a few times already with no issues ....they were all amazed with the good condition my bus is in !!

does any1 have a number for dave rowley ???

Regarding the guage everything has been tested and checked by an auto electrician so its all in working order the only problem is the float ( while playing around with it , its only starts responding above half tank )
