[Valsheda]

Thats a very nice camper you have there mate

[Micke]

Cheers mate . But it needs a bit of bodywork doing by now . Pictures were taken September 2005 in Cornwall

scarey
thats identical to mine when i first got it but had a black stripe, these are the only pics i have of it with the stripes


Good looking van you have, glad to see it still being enjoyed

Thats the exact same model I've got, too. Unfortunately both of yours look in better nick than mine..

[Micke]

hi! Don't forget: My pictures are from last year, bodywork a lot shabbier by now. Fresh??? sea air & everyday use seem to have that effect on old fords . Hmmm......... where did a put the filler, sandpaper & hammerite? . So where are your pics then?

I didnt put any on because I was embaressed about the state of it! was going to wait until I resprayed it. I'll have a go though....

Mmmmm, that's nice!

This is my mk2 autosleeper, very much "work in progress". I have just changed it from automatic to 5 speed manual with an unleaded engine.
There is some bodywork to do around one of the arches and one back door but its not too bad for a 26 yr old van

[Micke]

It actually looks better than mine do at the moment, at least from behind . But i did pick up a couple of rear doors a few weeks ago! "Only" need to respray them & fit them..........when i get time .

[MRspivvy]

Yeah, I could really do with a new back door, I missed the last ones on ebay. I am going to try and fix whats on there, meantime I am gathering all the stuff together to go on there- captains chairs, 4into1 manifold, 38dgas weber carb, sidepipes, chrome wheels etc. kind of a '70s custom van theme. I'm aiming to have it finished for summer 2007! never seem to have the time at the mo.

[Micke]

It was probably me who got them . I picked mine up on e-bay a month ago. But i never seem to have time to do any work on the van, i'ts used every day . I'ts completely orignal inside except for carpet & fridge. I think all of the bodywork is original aswell, so pretty rotten in places by now . Not looking forward to the MOT in 6 weeks!

[MRspivvy]

Mine had a long mot on when i bought it- I think it was a dodgey one as the back brakes didnt work! Underside isnt too bad on mine though, the only welding I have to do is under both front steps, and a small patch by the rear arch. oh and the sides of the dash, but thats a screen out job so it can wait for now. I went to tenby in it last summer, got there and back ok but it was so damned slow with the auto, hence the manual conversion and mild hotting up of the engine I am planning.
