Hi guys. Long time no see. Did it get finished? No. But usable though. I did get fed up with it and decided to dodgy up a fixed roof so we could use it at a camp site we set up on private property. I got it done by end of February 2013. I towed it 170km and was so impressed that I brought it home to do some more work on it. We would have spent more than 50 nights in it since then. Still missing lots of stuff but does what we need to for the time being. We only tow it 25ks from my parents place to the camp site but   And then last June we decided to get something slightly bigger! Still a work in progress, gave my self 5 years to complete. Due to water damage inside, but cheap...  Sorry if pics too big. First time on tablet and still trying to work it out!

Oh look it's got a perfect spot for the stripper pole on the roof.

Hey Tassie, good to have you back and thanks for the caravan update. I was just thinking about this the other day. Bus will be an awesome tourer. Suzuki fit in the back?

Hi guys. Hopefully this tab will get me better access again. I have some inside pics somewhere. Just need to find them. It was built specifically as a camper in 1996 but had a mishap late 2012 where it spent 6 weeks at a 45deg angle against some conifers! Will give the details tonight. I want to put a spa on the roof but i think weight will be an issue..
Speedo shows 60 odd k since conversion. Am really looking forward to getting it done and going touring with a Suzuki strapped to the back ☺ Do have a pic from the past, well before i got it with a Sierra behind it on a trailer. Don't suppose that anyone had seen this around the place in the last 20 years? I believe it lived quite a while at Doon Doon Roadhouse. Northern WA

Definitely needs lots of work bring it back up to scratch. But is cool none the less. It is more like a flat with wheels, so huge inside. Had a few drinking sessions in there so far... Camping trips will be interesting

Thanks for the pics, not sure what it looks like now but it was certainly pretty impresive at one stage.
