Its a 2 litre with the usual gear just finishing off some retrimming. goes beaut got the stereo new seats and some other stuff yet to go, gonna keep the fitout minimal. We do want a cool set of wheels and a dumping so if you see any rims that would look cool let me know. Will try and keep posted

Martini Olive Green I assume?

Our first bus was this colour. Yours looks real neat

Very clean bus. I'm going the same way with the fitout of my 71 bay panel.
I'd be interested in how you did the floor. (ply/carpet/etc)


These wheels might interest you. I'm just down the F3 and am open to offers.

The floor is just ply with carpet. I like your rims but Im after something out of the ordinary. thanks anyhow. Any thoughts on fitout cupboards etc we want to keep it minimal

This is what I am doing for the fitout. Might be similar to your views.

Like you I'm after multi function van so lots of cupboards would cut down on useable space when I'm not camping.

Lining up to the trim line inside.
1.9m bed area. (cary plenty of surfboards)
Removable middle seat from a microbus (will register as a 5 seater)
Storage under bed area where I moved the fuel tank forward.
White laminated 3mm MDF over the roof with some insulation.(needs to be easily bent sheeting)
Second Battery
I have a 3 way 30 litre chest fridge which won't stay in permanently.
Portable stove.
Maybe some sort of hinged fold up table (only if I can hide it when not up).
Some storage behind the front seat barrier but not very deep (again trimmed so it looks hidden)

Regards
Brendan

Nice clean bus. My bus was a camper but a badly converted rusted out one.
It was good once but that was till someone pulled the guts out of her. But i can't complain about getting it for nothing.
Once again that's a sweet camper. Good luck with her and bus on!!
