    Feet up coffee in hand and salvage rebuilds UK. A great way to wind down after work. 👍

    How many people have taken their older motor in for a welding job, and got it back looking great with under seal slapped everywhere, with a nightmare bodge underneath! Another lesson on how to repair cars properly. A delight to watch a proper pair of motor engineers at work. 👍😎

    Amazing isn't it, old Rob is more excited about this camper than the Ferrari! Brilliant

    Broken manifold stubs are pretty common of some trucks here in the US. Guys weld a nut on the stud, to back them out, even on aluminum heads. The heat helps loosen up the stud.

    Absolutely cracking video Rob, first things first - Don’t sell it. Record / video everything you do, it’s always fantastic channel content. Chassis patch ups, curtain upgrades, body repairs, cleaning the inside, showing all the gadgets working, cleaning the engine compartment, engine service? It will be the best, most original Talbot motorhome out there! And indeed worth a fortune!! 🚌🚍🚐👍👌👏😂😎

    I've had a couple of autosleepers, people really go for the retro look of the older vans, I would keep the curtains, just clean them. Originality it everything, as long as its a genuine autosleeper.

    Really enjoying this one, Rob & Chris. It reminds me of my old neighbour's Renault camper when I was a kid. He maintained it fastidiously, updating things like the upholstery and carpets, and even though it was probably knocking 30 years old (B reg, I think) when he had to let it go, it was a lovely thing to be in, and mechanically spot on. Thanks for the nostalgia trip, guys 👍

    My mum's neighbour had one of these for about 5 years, they're not a bad wagon, he didn't have any major or recurrent issues with it... Surprising for a Talbot!! 😂
    Good result boys!
    Yeah, a few things to sort out but it's mostly minor things as you say

  • @bill-a-bongbill6228
    @bill-a-bongbill6228 3 роки тому +2

    Looks well for the age, you have to finish the outside of the van, before the inside, now that the MOT is sorted inside should be less time, but i know use 2 are like lol , it will look mint either way

  • @dave4803
    @dave4803 3 роки тому +2

    Myself I would modernize it a little, hit ebay and see what bits you can get like back up cameras and parking sensors for example.
    Sat nav is a good one too as the main thing that puts people off these older campers is the lack of modern features.
    But when you start adding solar and things like that you struggle to get it back unless you plan on using it for a few years before selling it.

    It’s a keeper.
    Firstly give it a good valet/mop with G3, then a polish. Get yourself a nice set of modern alloys on her and update the interior. Make it look as modern and homely as possible.👍

  • @martinbutler9999
    @martinbutler9999 3 роки тому +1

    Personally, i would clean up the rust and seal everything, to stop any future rot, do that first, then tackle the interior, Then once you have the interior as you like it, do a couple of Rob's days out videos, visiting car museums, such as Beauleigh Motor museum, & other things of interest with your wife, Chris can do the same, possibly a classic car show, we all know how Chris likes his classic cars.

    Another great SRUK Video!! Really nice to see in detail the welding repair & how you guys solved the washer pump issue, I'm not brave enough to try stuff like that. Can't wait to see what you guys do with it, smarten up the interior, sort the outside, has the makings of a great long term project there. Keep this one long term & don't flip it. Maybe now the show season is coming back slowly why not go to a couple of car events with it, and do some videos there?? Stay safe guys

    They do tend to suffer from rust underneath but ok if you keep it under control.

    Hello you Kentish Kampers....😀
    I have restored my VW camper over time and I would suggest you concentrate on the interior first, new curtains and cushions, even carpet if necessary. Check the leisure battery condition and the water/waste tanks and pump, fit LED interior lamps throughout. Fit a diesel winter heater.Keep it ready for use at short notice.
    They also make a good spare room in case of too many visitors!!

    I would clean up the inside so that you can use it - ditch those awful curtains. Use it for a bit and on rainy days do the other bits of bodywork. I am intrigued as to how the inside will look once it is all spruced up.

  • @BRI33NOR
    @BRI33NOR 3 роки тому +2

    I have owned three of these, excellent vans basically. But all mine had serious rust problems on the front bulkhead. Take out the windscreen, because of bad drainage and some slight condensation and leaks around the screen there was serious rust under there. By the time it showed outside the inner bit was gone beyond repair . Whole new bulkhead had to be fitted, expensive.
