My new CFL van
« on: October 10, 2008, 08:34:24 PM »
G'day

What an adventure I have had.
Flew to the Sunshine Coast last Friday and picked up the van.
I camped at beaches every night, watched the sun come up in the morning and then went swimming.

I bought a clean, straight, rust free, windowless CFL, with blue 3.3, trimatic, 9" dual diff, air conditioned, for $4250. It has been very well maintained. I drove it around the Sunshine Coast and then home, doing over 1500km in a few days without any trouble.
I was going to catch up with a few people but work dragged me back to reality and I traveled through Brisbane late at night.



Since getting home I have been getting lots of comments such as "cool van", "do you want to
sell it?" "please" etc,etc...

The air conditioner is an underdash unit mounted in the roof just behind the seats. The condenser is mounted behind the bullbar.

G'day

The van is fairly standard inside. There is carpet on the floor and a fold up bed. It still has the original headlining in the front.
It was yellow and has been resprayed in a HD Holden off White as he had a HD sedan in that colour.
For a 32 year old commercial vehicle it is in exceptional condition.
Yeah I am fairly happy with it
The problem I have is that most of my stories end with... and that is why I am not allowed to go back there!
