Acquired in April 2021, this one came in as a dirty work van with zero mods. Fairly high on miles for its age but very straight, FSH and highline spec. It sat waiting for some love for a little while before we set about it. Here’s an intro to what’s been done so far.

Lewis’s T4 Transporter
Ryan’s T5 – Dubsta #001
Here’s where Dubsta began. I had my eye on my neighbour’s van since we moved in. Wasn’t much to look at but I’d always wanted a transporter and I wanted to build one myself. It took me about 6 months to do the deal from first conversation. I’m glad I stuck with it!
