Teh paint job makes me shudder.


Fossil - January 14th, 2005 at 12:49 PM

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


Davecho - January 14th, 2005 at 01:01 PM

blue plate on it says its a 73

Desert Bug - January 14th, 2005 at 03:10 PM

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.


Davecho - January 14th, 2005 at 04:01 PM

Thanks dude, we should be over in wa at the end of winter :)


Andy - January 14th, 2005 at 04:22 PM

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 :D

ColumBUS - January 17th, 2005 at 01:42 PM

very nice look inside that bus, exactly what i want to do with a panel, only a little less camper and a lot more P.I.M.P.

cant wait to see the new paint, will you be keeping the imitation split at the front?

Fossil - January 17th, 2005 at 04:55 PM

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 :cool:


Davecho - January 17th, 2005 at 06:12 PM

will be there with bells on fossil. Bull bar going on tomorrow night!!!


Davecho - January 18th, 2005 at 11:47 PM

Just finished putting the bull bar on before!!!! No more annoying spare tyre in the back!!

Davecho - January 19th, 2005 at 06:25 PM

Seems like I'm updating this every day :)
Moved number plate, got a tyre cover this morning and touched up the bull bar paint :)
