Bugger!

What started out as a hunt for some of the leisure battery wiring has turned into a 3 week dash to fix this before we go away to Cornwall.


When I first found the hole at my parents whilst inspecting the leisure battery wiring I had thought about leaving it until the winter, but Amy was so looking forward to having a fully functioning bus on our trip to Cornwall I decided to take the plunge and start ripping things out with the help of my mum & dad.


Luckily the cupboards didn't take that long to remove and within a couple of hours I was able to lift the floor to see the extent of the damage.

After the floor had been taken up I was able to inspect the area fully and soon realised I was going to have to make a hole in the side of the van... :(  The main floor panel was ok, with just surface rust in places.


Luckily the August bank holiday was just around the corner, so I got hold of a new outer sill panel from Cool Air VW and got started.
