Starbuck Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Get it black with a red stripe down the Side... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted August 26, 2012 Author Share Posted August 26, 2012 Its getting machine polished tomorrow abd hes getting the wheels re done, im gonna recarpet it aswell. Dont think i could talk him into painting it or anything. I still cant believe he baught this. Its normally old fiat or renualt motorhomes he goes for. The only cool 1 he ever had before was a 76 vw baywindow camper but that never saw the road. Im going on the insurance 2morrow:D cant wait to take it out for a rip! It sounds awesome!

Bluebear Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Aren't these the ones where you have to rip up half the dash and cabin just to get at the engine? Lovely purchase though, your dad keeping the Confederate battle flag sticker on the back? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Max9650 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 24mpg.... did the previous owner tell you that ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 aye the previous owner quoted the fuel consumption lolaye the majority of the engine is under the dash. the steering wheel itself is pretty far from the windscreen tbh its a really wierd driving position. my dad says hes not touching any of the stickers now, they are all original and he wants to keep it that way, even if they do look a bit shit loli got a couple pics inside with my fne but the quality is poorim sitting on the rear bench seat taking the photo that folds down into a massive bed. forgot to get a pic tho.still not driven it! or been out in it. hopefully get insurance sorted tomorrow.

Jhandy Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 These are good little vans dude, they done a couple of straights 6 engines, i know one was 2.5 another i think was a 4.2 and the next a 3 something lol, and you may get 24 mpg with the engine off, you might see 15 if that we have a couple of yanks our camaro does 7 mpg on a good run, but that is a 5.9 lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 In V8s we measure the mileage in SMILES to the gallon not miles!! thats why my V8 Landy has been parked up for the last 6 years lol thats only a 3.5l and does a wapping 12-15 mpg!!! but does lovely donuts and burn outs on 33 by 12 inch wide tires lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
