Camper has to go...
« on: February 23, 2015, 01:09:30 PM »
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 ``

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 .
