no pics of the back?  I'm picturing shag pile carpet, velour upholstery and a mirror ball.

You forgot the "if this van's a rockin' don't bother knockin'" bumper sticker  ::)

Nothing beats the Beddy... My LWB can fit 4 bikes but is more comfortable with 2.
Huge in the back only a 2 seater so plenty of room to sleep.


Gee, I hope your hair replacement treatment went well.  ;D

Speaking of utes or vans.

Do any of you know of a decent old Holden ute or WINDOWLESS van for sale. I want one as a general VMX hauler and a promo for my blasting business.

Due to preferences I am only interested in FE FC FB EK

Any leads on a good vehicle would be appreciated but pleas it must be a good one and preferably registered with little or no body issues.

Mechanically, so long as it runs and drives reasonably that's OK

Cheers guys

Hey Dave I was driving out the back of Londonderry a couple of weeks ago and came accross a bloke dragging an FC panel van out of a blackberry hedge. As he was doing the dragging with an identical black Cherokee as mine I had to stop and have a gander and talk Jeeps ::) (that was my excuse for being nosy, anyway). The van had been parked since 1974 (going by the rego sticker)and had rusted Tasman 'mag' wheels, a 179 with twin strommies, alloy rocker cover and a really nice set of extractors. That was the upside, the downside was that the old van had absolutely no floors in the front whatsoever. By the looks of it someone had started a floor replacement but never got past oxying out the old floor. The old van was pretty much past any restoration but the bloke dragging it out didn't mind as he only wanted the bodyshell to  build a drag car with a big block Chevy.
This has zero to do with the thread or your needs of course but I thought I'd pass on yet another "things you see" yarn.

ps...Have you had a look at my Ducati engine yet?
