DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I'm really not impressed by this - it's shabby behaviour, dishonest practice and frankly the trader should be ashamed of themselves. We know who they are. If you can't be trusted to act as a middleman, you shouldn't be in business. That is not your money. It's not a cash-flow issue, I'm assuming you...

Wow! Quality work, that's some serious panel repair you're doing - it looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing this one progress....

We have to do a bus weekend away.....

I bought my bus from Biagio....

Thanks everyone - I've really enjoyed doing this project - and I can't say enough good things about Johnson's - they worked their a55es off to get this sorted by the deadline and didn't skimp anywhere - you should see the wiring, it's properly OCD in the way it's been put together. The engine by Sat...

I guess looking at the vent you’ve fitted an Eberspacher or Webasto. The typical type of either does around 2000w of heat - that will heat a truck cab fine so you should be ok even with the extra glass. If the pump’s bolted to the floorpan the ticking might get annoying (move it to a chassis rail)....

And that - was pretty much that. We went from this..... https://s20.postimg.cc/aazuxganx/19424031_437666136607853_7638979426740779717_n.jpg To this.... https://s20.postimg.cc/6mnjdv29p/F61172_AB-_AA36-4153-_BAB6-4_D0_DD7_EFA7_B5.jpg https://s20.postimg.cc/kgbw2xi0d/AD622_DDA-419_E-4528-8_B1_F-_CFF26...

So - we're coming to the end of the build now - and it was time to get the engine in..... very exciting.... And it looked brilliant - deliberately styled to look stock, but with a couple of cool touches like the distributor and coil being done in black, a stock alternator pulley and a funky fan-shro...

So - the tarty bits..... LED lighting. Was really looking forward to getting this sorted. I just wanted some fun lighting in the bus. Two zones. RGBW. Multi-colour controller..... So the idea was to have lights under the back seat, under the lip of the kitchen surface. And on the cross-member under ...

We agreed on a digital detox when we were on the road in Spain with no wifi and no roaming data - worked well....

Oh yeah - and my Daughter has broken the Snapchat spell and is all the happier for it....

I’ve deleted my Facebook account. Did Insta for a while before but got bored of ‘competitive posting’

Use WhatsApp a lot - have various threads with friends and family that keeps us all in touch.

And DDK of course

FOMO? nah, JOMO....

And finally - and most contentiously at home. The Curtains...... Didn't want flowers. Too cliched for me. Nor Hawaiian. Nor Psychedelic. But it needed to fit with the colour-scheme, look period, but not trying too hard. Ended up with this as a shortlist. https://s20.postimg.cc/kw6x1acct/53254422-29_...

So now it was onto the upholstery - this was done by Nick at Autobahn Customs - remember he was the one with the sound design advice too - here's some of his work - and to top it all, great prices and a really good partner to work with - big thanks to Nick for all he did... http://www.autobahncustom...

So one of the great things about working with Johnson's is that they have people around them who will bespoke-build - there are other companies out there who will let you have kits and stuff, but they all likely need altering and you can spend a lot of time and effort on a lot of money to fit one of...
