I wish mate  . No good hanging on to something I can`t use . I also have a good little fishing boat that will have to join the camper.... Has a rope start o/b motor that I can`t use ( not enough muscle anymore ) and an electric start o/b costs more than the boat`s worth. I can see me spending a lot more time in the garden  . Don`t spose that`s going to hurt me . Sh**t happens but ya gotta keep ploddin on  .

Sadly have to say Goodby to my Bedmobile after it`s next trip  . Taking her to Wallaroo SA for a few days then she has to find a new address . Has been a good project over the years but `cos of health issues am unable to get full use of her. Hopefully she`ll find a nice cosy shed somewhere  .

I`m wondering if the old Toyota FJ Landcruiser motors would fit in? ( if you can find one :-). ) They were around 4 ltrs I think . Very much like a Jap Chev . Bloody strong engine .

Ta for the replies . It was a hard decision to let go . Hopefully give her one more trip before the final farewell. I`m sure my `second home` will go to a good home .

It is with much sorrow & regret that , because of major medical probs , I have to part with my dear `ol Beddy. To sell it at a fair & respectful price Im thinking of going the `ebay way` . What would be a realistic reserve price to put on her?? I got it after it sat for many years neglected in a shed. The 186 motor is a Repco rebuilt long motor thats done only a few thousand K`s . Because it sat for so long ( dry ) I replaced welshplugs , water pump , thermo etc . Radiator replaced with a 3 core alloy one . The original 3 sp box is replaced with a 4 sp . Clutch works ok ( doesn`t slip `) but there`s an issue with the adjustment , it has too much free play . I`m thinking the wrong pressure plate is fitted . All brakes have been renewed ( new shoes & wheel cyl and drums machined ) . Good LT tyres all round . The body has some rust but nothing major . Mainly at the joins and rear doors . Window rubbers would want replacing soon. The camper conversion was done professionally ( by Cararest or something , not sure ) . It has 240v & 12v wiring etc . Mains water connected ( and tank ) . Has fridge , slide out TV , plenty of storage , etc ,etc . I fitted a `sail-track ` to the side and comes with a good awning/canopy thingy . My wife and I have done a couple of small trips in her ( maybe 1000 Ks all up ) and the `ol girl went well . Comes with 3 months rego . Drive away . Cheers, Bob. Can`t seem to put pics up?? The photo in my profile is `` as I got it ``
