Start of Restoration Vw California T5 2008

[RicardoPT]

Hi, I will be posting some photos, questions and doubts that I have here..., if you have any questions about the interiors of the furniture and photos that are impossible to take with the van assembled, just ask. 🤣

ah, ist dieses Aufstelldach die Antwort von VW nach der Kritik am Faltenbalg?😀

In Portugal braucht man vermutlich eher einen Sonnenschutz und Schattenspender...

 

Aber generell hat so eine Cabrio-Variante durchaus einen gewissen Charme 👍

Wow Ricardo, that really looks like being a huge project! 

 

Your working clothes impress me even more, looking completely different from the ones I am wearing:  While working on the Cali, not only my clothes look significantly dirtier 😉

 

I'm looking forward to seeing new pictures...

Please keep us posted!

Hi, 

 

what's the reason for your this huge make over. Do you have problems with rust in the car? It's not so easy to see on the picture? Do you have planned some modernization?

The van was in very poor condition, with several broken parts, very dirty and after careful consideration, we decided that the best thing to do would be to dismantle it completely.
The aesthetic renovation will involve putting vinyl on the furniture, replacing the floor, painting and restoring all the plastic parts.

 

The first help I needed from you:
A store in Europe where I can buy aluminum furniture curtains with their respective fasteners and these parts?

You could try to 3D-print several of these little plastic parts.
