Title: '85 CF2 work in progress..
Post by: erics8 on September 11, 2010, 04:52:21 PM

Hi all, this is my lwb cf2, been working on it for a while now, still a ways to go but its road legal and daily driven, just waiting for some fine weather to give it a spray.. gloss black with brush painted murals on the side window panels.. im thinking trident weilding topless maidens riding dragons into valhalla or something :p runs 308, toyota 5 spd.

hey mate, good to see another LWB, she looks quite straight too.
Its an interesting setup having the bug catcher facing backwards, do you drive with the engine cover off to get the most air in, or do you have air plumbed up to the bug catcher while the cover is on?

Cheers mate, yea its not too bad, just gotta tidy up a bit of rust in the rear and the body'll be fine for a month or so  ;) i generally just leave the engine cover off to terrify passengers, i just put on a round filter when i put the cover on..

Welcome aboard, make sure you provide plenty of pics of your van being painted, i love the talent of airbrushers, never get tired of watching them at work. I will be watching and filming the guy that does mine, can't wait.

Hey Eric,

That's looking pretty neat mate. Good to see another LWB coming together. Let me know if your interested in attending any runs over summer. We have a few coming up and would be glad to have you come along and meet other beddy owners. Also check out the post under events for the NZ Custom Van Nationals easter next year. They're in Tapu, just north of Thames so come along and meet everyone and have a great time.

Hope to catch up soon.
Cheers,
Garry.
