Job list and costings :
Owning one of these babies is not cheap, but as i reminded my bank manager and various family members this is an INVESTMENT! Yes by splurging loads of cash on a rusty old bus i am actually making money!!! Best of all if you miss your mortgage repayments or have to seperate/divorce because of the amount you have spent you at least have somewhere to sleep.
Most of the parts prices are from Just Kampers and VWHeritage stores, ive gone for cheaper options were possible including 'rust free' imported panels via ebay which will require stripping of paint and light dent removal.
