  • Dad & Son project

    Hi All

    Just like to introduce myself.

    We've just bought our first T4! A 1997 Caravelle 2.5 TDI (102bhp).

    The plan is that me and my eldest son Luke who's 15 are going to turn it into a camper for the whole family to enjoy. I have a background in engineering and Luke is as keen as mustard to get stuck in so we will try and log our project on here.


    The van was bought from a friend of mine who had it for just over 12 months. I also know of two of the former previous owners and I'm currently trying to find out a bit of history and gather some old photo's.


    The van was originally adapted for a disability ramp and then used to tow a race car and trailer through the UK and Europe. It was then re-adapted for wheelchair use before being transformed to it's current incarnation!


    We've owned it for a weekend so far (it's mega!!)and have given the bus a thorough clean and a quick polish (and obviously a ride out!) before the conversion work starts over the Easter break. We'll try and log our progress on a build thread and if I get any old photo's etc I'll post if anyone is interested?
