My toy........

[Muncha]

Pretty much just bought another vehicle.

Will be doing a fair bit of work to this one, mainly a complete redo of the inside starting off by taking it apart completely and building it back to my specs.

It's nothing special driveline wise but it's exactly what I'm after, 5 speed etc. Mid 80s model with 90k klm on it, imaculate seats etc, been well looked after.

I will try to post some pics up later from the for sale add.

Anyone wanna have a guess as to what it is????? :dunno:

Making it into a camper van??Ermm...I think "Motor-home" is the likely terminology...;)

Yep converting it into a motorhome.

Plan is to take the next year or so off and do a lap around Australia.

[firebug]

Will it fit through the tunnels at WSID??

[Muncha]

Hmmm good point, will have to check before I go. Would maybe crack a 30 though, might wait until I take the seats out and try for a 29. :D

[Delft Maloo]

it'll fit throught the tunnels easily, the roof is about 4m high and they are approx 4-5m wide.
I reckon you'd be lucky to crack anything in the 30's,lol.

[Muncha]

Got it to work today, work to start on it soon. :D

I have a bit of work to get through and will probably be flat out for a month or so, then its full steam ahead getting the inside done.

Does this bus bang like others I have seen about?

[Muncha]

It doesnt do much as there are no seats in it. Would you like to buy a seat or 8? :)

[Kyle]

I'll take two :D

Bit of a update. Work has pretty much finished up so we have started to get some work done on the bus. The bed frame has started to be made I just need a few more materials and that should be done. We have ordered a door for the outside, pretty much a caravan door with a security door on the outside and a inner flyscreen door. It's on order and should be 2-4 weeks away.

Went to the caravan/camping show at rosehill race course over the last 2 days. Managed to get a Honda generator for a decent price and also a lot of info the will help greatly on the trip.

Updated pics through the week. :)
