silver - June 16th, 2003 at 08:16 PM

Well I guess it had to happen, after all my Container Van is finished....... So I just bought an 11 window 67 van it is an unfinished project..and comes with all the rust removed new steel bits to replace the bits cut out,all seats ,all knobs and thing's. new tyres, new Shimmo built gearbox,2 x 1640 cc engines, extra doors, all westcoast rubbers needed to restore, bullbar,about ten gauges and reconditioned brakes the cost, well I am tempted to get some guesses from you all, but I have to tell you it cost $1000.00 bucks
now if I can just do as good a job as I did on my other Van, it will be cool ...........
I will post some pic's real soon

Here's what I got for my $1000 we dragged out of the shed it has sat in for 4yrs the previous owner has cut out all the rust and has new replacement panels to finish

the rear skirts have been hacked out i think i can get these new .....anyone have some


silver - June 23rd, 2003 at 07:33 PM

A good nose with very little rust and the bullbar has saved it from damage


silver - June 23rd, 2003 at 07:36 PM

the Dash has been smoothed to accommodate gauges yuk..... I think i will get another dash.
gauges anyone?:o

I dont know why this was done but it is now a "walkthru" where will I put the spare
I will probably put the barrier back in

The speedo has been reset, to all the zero's
maybe I could pass it off as new?........
well considering the project as a whole it is not too bad all the new resto parts and rubbers were in the price and the running gear has been properly restored /rebuilt. with new tyres even....:bounce
