Title: Black Beddie
Post by: Bas / NZ on May 24, 2012, 05:57:06 PM
Ok guys. Black Beedie is up for sale, goes well, wife has a new list of things to do around the house :-\ so it takes back seat once again, I think better to sell and have someone finish her.

I'm sorry to hear about your decision Bas. It will be a sad day when she goes. Someone will be grabbing an absolute bargain.

Ok Guys, I hear your words, but how do you keep the wife happy and work on the van at the same time. I thought it would be better to look out there and not see the van than to see it and not be able to work on it. Don't forget I still have the custom Camper that is undergoing a face lift from a Jeep Grand Cherokee 1996 model.

Have 6 people wanting to look at it on the weekend :-\ should be  :D I know....... Bas

WHAT THE???!!! ??? ??? where is this mysterious rule that says that as soon as you get a mrs she becomes the boss and makes all the decisions so she is happy . Guys its supposed to be a partnership .you know 50-50 what about your own happiness??? ??? ??? I just dont understand this concept .if your wife wants stuff done around the house by all means give her a hand but dont give up your toys for a new bathroom etc isn't your hapiness important too???   ok enough ranting .........my wifes calling ....i gotta go take out the bins!!! ;D ;)

John, when I first read your post i read you had 9 wives, was thinking omg this guy deserves a saint hood.

Bas if you still have the bug and want to do this one keep it, you have the space (kinda). Would be hard to replace either the wife or the van so keep both.
Yeah I hear people saying but i'm selling up ... but I have no space and am working towards a 6+ car, err van garage :D

Hey Bas, did you get any further with your exhaust system?

Yep started to put it together, but not finished, decided to run both pipes down the left side and split it up over the diff again.

Post by: Merlin on May 26, 2012, 12:04:08 PM
it doesn't make economic sense ,he's offering $4200 ,you've spent more than that in time & money on her and it would be like letting them pull one of your kids apart i reckon !!! :( :( :o :o ive been building mine for over 7 years now and i have contemplated selling on several occasions but on reflection I don't drink (much) smoke ,gamble or chase dirty women so i figure this vice is pretty mild in the sceme of things .In the end it doesn't matter if you only do an hour a week on her its all progress (surely your beautiful wife couldn't begrudge you that hey?? ;) ;) :)  anyway you'll spend the rest of your life regretting it 'trust me i've been there    Cheers Neil

Ok told him no, he then offered $4500.00, I said no because he was going to scrap it, the body is to good for that.

A mate of mine sold his SWB fitted with an LD28 diesel and auto box a few years back. The money changed hands and the buyer asks my mate to drive the van up his driveway to the roadside. Sitting there is a HIAB and my mate watches while the new owner takes a steel bar to the side windows, slings through a chain and lifts the Beddie onto the back of the truck. Turns out they only wanted it for motor. He said he was too shocked to do anything. He still talks about how gutted he was at the time.

What Merlin said Bas! Look at mine. 22 years and I'm still plodding along.  ;D

Hmmm, actually now I think about it maybe don't look at mine. That probably wasn't the best example.  :P

If it takes a another 22 yrs, the van might be around longer than you are............. :D

Post by: tiwaz_nz on May 26, 2012, 04:52:16 PM
tell him he can have the motor, box , loom and power steer for 4500 and you keep the rest  :D
you could even take it out for them for 5000  ;D , would be sad to see it end that way  >:( >:( >:(
