What is really sad is that because of the "low" price of scrap, they will be only worth about $25.00 each....If I was in nsw, I would def help save some of them......

Why was he saving them. They don't look like they are missing much off them apart from where the rust is

Does anyone have connections in the TV world,they could get Supercheap Auto to sponsor a "my kitchen rules" type show where petrol heads get to rebuild Beedies in teams and then they're auctioned off like in the Block.This will give out beloved Busses a new lease on life,.the program could be kicked off with this flock of unwanted rust buckets,
I see a ratings buster here.

Someone must be able to take them, even if they just stripped them and dumped the bodies (would be better to rebuild them though).
Even if said person sold all the parts and made some dollars at least the parts would remain out there
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: wendyh on February 17, 2017, 06:17:18 AM
The story goes like this. ....
This old guy had a huge collection and didn't want to sell  much....
Somethings happen and the landlord was left with around 14 vans , some campers as well.
He has been trying to sell them off..the savable ones did go....and then he got annoyed in answering all the phone calls.
Now there are v only six rust buckets left...so way beyond saving im gathering. ..but yes they are worth stripping and saving the parts.
I dont have the room to store parts, we live in suburbia and my shed is chock a block already.
Im happy to help with $$ and time stripping them....if we pool our resources things can happen.....

Post by: wendyh on February 17, 2017, 06:19:40 AM
They have been moved from when we first looked last year. ..
The back of some vans were full to the brim in boxes of parts.....
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: wendyh on February 17, 2017, 06:21:44 AM
Come on bugas any ideas appreciated. ....
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: wendyh on February 17, 2017, 06:27:08 AM
I've got the room but no bucks, and I'm in Ballarat.
Ok how about we ( the buga collective)  get a cheap shipping container, to store all parts and send it to your place...the towing costs of all sixe vans might not work, all in one continer might???
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: Drifter on February 17, 2017, 01:30:14 PM
I have the room also but not the cash
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: wendyh on February 17, 2017, 02:11:08 PM
so how far away from riverstone are you??
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: BusyKiwi on February 18, 2017, 05:39:07 AM
If only I was in OZ, so much potential sitting there.
Those vans would be perfect for full on customs because you end up modifying every panel anyway. Look at my van when I first started it, but I didn't intend to do what I have done with it way back then.

As well as all the parts, you could make a van trailer - draw bar on the front and hidden axle under middle of the van, turn front and rear axles into fake lazy axles. SWB roof on a LWB ...
You make a long tandem, could even do a shortened van

Hi Wendy.   Looking for a grille condition not important as long as the top cross member (latch part )  is good. Doesn't matter if bottom is not 100%.  It's going to be chopped  and sectioned.      Even anyone around Brisbane got one lying around.
Title: Re: Urgent collection going to scrap
Post by: wendyh on February 26, 2017, 07:33:48 PM
Ok will make a not of your request and will get back to you as soon as possible!
Will be a couple of weeks before we can have access to them.

Cheers,
