I've finally found & bought a campervan, thanks so much for your help & contributions from that long ago fundraiser!
Already dubbed with the name of Mr.Rainbow, this 1980 Daihatsu Delta Pop Top Campervan is ready to hit the not-so dusty red roads of Australia, the cooler climes of the south are calling!
My Queensland plates and newly acquired Queensland Drivers License.
I've spent the last two days giving him a good spring clean (a la Dad style), with Rome's help. I've gone over the whole interior, pulling everything apart, cleaning & then putting it all back together again.
The Dining/Future Work Room
Rome has gone over the whole exterior, degreased the engine & the side door slider, double checked the engine, installed a second battery for the lights & fridge.
Rome working hard while Joel is hardly working.
The only thing missing is a couple of good awnings out the side & back doors to extend the living space further :P
Can you believe I’ve even found some canvas in him? and good quality canvas at! Sending out my heartfelt thanks yet again to all those who helped finance this purchase!
