DIY, yeah do it yourself

A new section of our site to be done for next year 2010. We help so many blokes and girls build their own buses at home, either by suppling parts or doing rust repairs or setting up suspension gear or maybe just advice. What ever the case, I thought its might be time to share some of the collection of photos I get sent to me of DYI projects.

Not are we always happy to see a 72 as a DYI set of gates, but, this one does look like it had been driven by feel for a while before it became a set of gates.

Stay tuned as I hope to have some interesting items to show you from some of the clever people thats shop here in one form or another.
