Hi all,

I just recieved my 74 Kombi Van yesterday and i am so Happy, it needs ALOT of work but it runs which is the main thing for me a the moment.

I can't wait till it's at the stage where i can take her camping. I will be asking a Heap of questions as i have no idea where to start. Wwll a slight idea as with everything i first started with a Google, and found here and then of course check eBay for parts :) But as far as wher eto buy new Window winders, what to cover the floors with, can i repair the canvas on the pop top or do i need to replace it, oh i could go on but i'll wait and do a seperate post.

Very happy to have found this site :)
