Come on BUGA's let's show them what REAL vans are!!
-
Yes, come on all you Beford owners.
Come to the Nats.
Last year there was only about 5 Bedford and another 4 or so other big vans.
It would be great to see double that. ;D
They don't have to be show quality, just bring them along and enjoy the get together.
Would love to see a huge bunch of Bigvans on the oval Easter Sunday.
Janet ;)
-
You tell um Janet.

;)Thanks Daz ;D
Your van can be the centre point, being a great big van.
Big Vans are Beautiful. :D

Hey guys,its been a while since Ive been on here,lol...Anyway I was not going to the Nats because of financial troubles,moving house etc,but was thinking if Rudd's stimilus bonus gets deposited in my account by next wednesday,I will be looking for a lift across the Nullabour,from Norseman,preferably with a vanner,lol..is anyone from WA heading over next week?? Will someone be going thru Norseman on wed/thurs?? I will only have a sleepin bag and medium sized duffle bag,and can help with driving duties/fuel...Getting back isnt as much of a headache as I dont have to be back at work til the 20th April..So any help getting ver there would be greatly appreciated..Nigzy
-
We hope you get it in time Nigzy,,fingures crossed for ya.
-
we scored our flights for 159 @ Nigzy .... welcome back bro!

Hi Peoples, Unfortunately our Beddie is a none goer again. We have been beaten by the smallest and simplist thing this time. Brake m/cylinder resevoir brittle and broken. Nothing else will fit, so hope Ben remembers to bring one to the Nats. We will be there in our little buzz-box Kia!!
This the best I can do!!!!(http://)
-
dam thats hard luck,, atleast you still be there tho.
look foward to meeting you.
Daz
-
thats a shame Brian , but hell of a great effort mate , so next year well both have beddies there. :D :D :D
-
another option,, some chain and a boat anchor.. problem solved.
-
I have hq master cylinders on both my vans and both haul her up real fine, sorry both mine have discs is yours drum or disc? not to worry though we won't have the beddie at the nats either ........ next year definately ;)
-
whats this,, all the beedies let you down, maybe transits will out number them,,,, lol.
na that wont happen.

-
way to go Dano.
-
;D Great t hear your support guys!! It can get a little depressing (nearly lost the plot and said "it's gotta go") when it looks like "our friend" up there is just saying; "you're not taking your van t the Nats"
Looking forward t meeting all the people I talk to on here
Cheers Brian
-
yes the Van Nats is about the vans,,, BUT more importantly its about the people and its when we forget this ( which has happened in the past ) which is what made the van scene shrink. so be a part of the life style with or without your van.. ( we all know it will be on the road when it can )
-
Well guys,that small glimmer of hope for me coming all but dissapeared yesterday. :'(
I am sorry I cant come cause every bit of me says this is gunna be a one time event that gets talked about for an eternity.
Enjoy yourselves and dont forget plenty photos for us poor working types. ::)

Enjoy one and all ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
