Hi gang
My son (17) several months ago told me he wanted a van to travel around in, I told him if he keeps his eyes open he might find some thing in a field, or barn....I did not expect him to find some thing... let alone a 1973 Transporter, so we knocked on the door and asked, Hay Mate what are you doing with the old wreck in the shed...the long and the short of it bought it for $200
....and who said barn finds dont exist?

Nice find! Love that 70s stripe! Now go to Supercheap and spend $500 on engine and gearbox oils, brake fluid, degreaser, gasket sealer, wheel bearing grease, CV joint grease and brake pads, a battery... and some insect spray!

Pay your debts, CxxT
