I want to see more pics of that streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch beddy. A lazy axel behind the diff and it would look the bees knees. A beddy can never be that far gone, look at my original van pics, now that is gone, look at her now, rust free.

Imagine reverse-parking the big beastie!!

With that overhang you'd take up the entire width of the footpath and be able to walk out of the Beddie rear door straight into the shop  ;D

Parallel parking would require a cricket pitch, two spotters and enough coin for three parking meters though...

I dont know, i would just hire the whole carpark,  ;D ;D ;D ;D As i said there is no rust there that cant be fixed if you were serious about keeping it. One thing that does concern me though, is that roof shot and the way they have extended the back, hard to see the welding but it just looks a little flimsy. Would make a great limo if you wanted to run that sort of business, a lot of work to get it to legal, but food for thought. Where the hell is Mullakine, is it for sale ? the van not mullakine  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;) ;)

Apparently the beddie was last used as people and gear carrier for a ballooning or sky diving company around Northam some years ago. ;)

most of those were modified by TL Engineering in Bayswater for School bus runs.
there prolly wasnt a passenger seat origanally just a rail out.
That pic is a worry but I can tell you i have seen plenty of those conversions and they are well made-for the time.
The reason i said Kellerberrin is the school bus guy up there had 10 or 12 of them at one stage.
Thought this might have been a survivor. :-\
