Hi everybody,
I am a new user to this forum. Looking around for a small to medium size VV. I want something that is in reasonably good condition that will not require too much work. I am also keen to find something in North East Vic (Melb would be ok).
So far I haven’t found quite what I am looking for but I will continue to check out ebay and the local area. Something will come along.
In the meantime I have found a couple of vans that were not what I was looking for but may be of interest to somebody. Both are located around the Benalla (Vic) area and both would need a reasonable amount of work to get them up to scratch.
I am going to attempt to post some photos. Hope it works ok.
The first is a “homemade” van. Some kind of sheetmetal over masonite I think. It seems sound but hasn’t been out and about for as while by the looks of it! Not sure what the owners would be wanting but I suspect not much.
The other is a Carapark “18”. It is fairly original (has a shower) but there is a ding in the roof and the inside needs a fair bit of work - most of the lining needs replacing, the carpet is rotten, and it is generally a bit of a mess. “Let go” I think is the term. There is also apparently an issue with one of the wheels/axle but it is towable. I think the owner wants around the $500 for it.
If anyone is interested in more info on these vans please email me (mpyrean@gmail.com).
I have some more photos and I would be happy to put anyone who is reasonably serious onto the owners.
I have also spotted a couple of smaller Carapark vans but haven’t yet determined if they are available or otherwise. I will keep the forum posted if they are of interest.
Cheers,
Martin
