Title: Our new" BEDDIE"
Post by: SandB on November 20, 2008, 10:14:54 PM: Hi everyone, We are new kids (old ones) on the block here. We have just purchased Lynden Bushnell ex Qld CF Van. I know it has a 3.8 litre V6, auto trans and HQ disc front end. It has the normal rust spots, in particular, gutters, but not too bad for it's age. Someone has attempted to do a bog job, but not very well, so will fix that up and respray it a similar colour.
We need a towbar, as it is going to be used to tow our dirtcircuit race car to various meets in SA; we are also going to need a fridge (you know why),slide out with bbq and washup facilities.
The bed is already in!!!!
If anyone has any imfo about the engine conversion etc I would love to here from you!

Only have one picture at the moment, but will post more as she progresses!

Cheers Brian & Carole ::)(http://)
