Hi, thanks for getting back to me so quickly, I appreciate it. I’m based in Yorkshire but I am willing to travel. Also are there any meetings this summer? Thanks

Thanks for your post can I ask do you use them for any work as well as servicing I’ve got a small leak from seal on steering box have you had any specific issues with your combi mine seems good so far it’s only done 20 000 miles came over 5years ago been in a garage for 5 allegedly really clean underneath
We have had several Minor and Major services, 2 MOT, new starter motor, minor body, paint and underseal work, gearbox oil change. Their constant work on air-cooled T2s should mean they are experienced with steering boxes. There is an example of their restoration work in an advert on the forum (I think now sold). They have featured vehicles in the magazines. osg

Hi, thank you very much for your advice. I have been wondering do you have a diagram of the fuse box so I can identify the fuses. My windscreen washer and brake light are not working. I do not have a service manual so I am working blind and I need to identify the fuses. Thank you
