About Us
Having fallen in love with cars and vans as a teenager, Chris decided to channel his enthusiasm into mechanics and now has over 37 years of experience in the trade.
On the other hand, Jim took a different route and utilised his entrepreneurial spirit to found and launch multiple successful businesses, including Greenheat Wales, Chilli penguin stoves and JimBobs Buses.
After a few beers around the campfire, Chris and Jim decided to join forces and create Volks Conversions to help others experience the joy and freedom of camper van life.
Volkswagens are Chris’ passion, and he has owned and restored many VW’s over the years, including the following:
1971 VW T2 Danbury Bay
1981 VW T25 2L air cooled Devon
1980 VW T25 2L air cooled Holdsworth
