so let me know what you think guys, i dont think its too bad for the money and what its running...not much rust either

im jelous, very nice example, specially for the price

The engine bay could use a once over.
Other than that, it looks very tidy.
I hope it is reliable for you.

its always hard to tell in pics but i recon u got a bargain..........

Cool, looks great for the price.

hey guys,

th engine bay is one of the things i plan on cleaning up. mainly replacing old worn parts and cleaning it, going to remove rocker cover and get it painted maybe sandblasted first. she is off to the mechanics in a couple of days for a check up and maybe sort out the carby problem other then that its looking heaps better then when i got it.

the sunroof is aftermarket and they guys before me did a rush job and leaks under the sealant they used, so this is being scraped offf and replace with some good weather proof stuff.

other general items to be done are:

- seat covers (untill i can afford to get recovered)
- a good vacuum
- carpet and underlay in the back
- stereo eventually
- colour the door cards black

other then that i hope for my sake that she is reliable as well lol

Aaarrrgghhh!!

so your the guy who beat me to it haha i was going to buy this van but missed the auction by 30mins as i forgot what time it was and i was out for a fraction too long. damn it!

Good luck with the little beast mate!

Nice buy.. I saw this one on eBay too but as usual it was on the wrong side of the country [:(!]

yeah im the guy..sorry steviestar but i had to have it lol..like i said it does need work but as far as a daily goes then it goes alright.

will post pics of the interior when i get it going a bit better

cheers
