Are you sure it's a 73 as I've gone one also and it has the square indicators up high and the steps are hidden in a foot well - did you change the front to have that earlier look :duh

G'day Rhys,
Looking good Mate. Good to see another one being done for serious 2 people cruising (full size dbl bed is much more comfy than those fold up 3/4 beds in most campers).
Hope all goes well with the trip, look us up if up this way.
Cheers, Ian.

Hey where are the pics taken? Looks like Nudgee beach??
I live near there!!!
Pics look sweet. I had a '72 panel with large rear tail lights and low front indicators, and had 1600 motor!

So what's the plan for the trip? We went round Oz last year. On the road over 5 months and did a full lap including tassie!
Magical 😀

yeah Kombi_Kid mines a 5/73 plate but it ain't blue - Dept' of Transport up here require a blue plate for modifications so possibly someone got it wrong from the original compliance plate.
so Davecho if you're going to the Dubs on 13 feb I will be there with mine 😎
