somewhatfoolish Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Shirley all suitable campers will come with a false bottom in the lav compartment stuffed with Es, wads of euros and a hot shoota? That's a thing now, so it must be true. Failing that the moisture from the inevitable leaks mean the bedding will make a particularly good hydroponic weed growing system.

anonymous user Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Forget the moon and stick and even a camper van. Thinking laterally, I would hire a 7.5 ton box van for the weekend and put some furniture in from the house. mat_the_cat, Magnificent Rustbucket, eddyramrod and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymous user Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I'm​ not sure if a hire company would be happy with a hole cut for a chimney but this stove was quite light and had a useful sized oven Magnificent Rustbucket, Skizzer and mat_the_cat 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who has converted a 1960s Austin Ambulance with a mahoosive Mercedes engine, and that has a wood burning stove. It's in West Cornwall, however, so not readily available for borrowing.

Thanks. 1981 Austin Morris Sherpa camper (Autosleeper conversion)£2,000Bridgwater98,000 miles MoT till June 10th 20172 litre petrol British Leyland 1998cc petrol O-series (for parts - same engine also used in: Morris Ital from 1980; Rover SD1 from 1982, and all front-wheel drive Austin Ambassadors)Autosleeper factory conversion:- Mains with hook-up and leisure battery (EHU lead inc)- Gas fridge (bottle included)- 2 burner hob & grill- 2 spare wheels (with tyres)- clever jigsaw bed that leaves fridge, cooker and cupboards accessible- 2 hammock-beds for kids/storing bedding- easy canvas-free pop-top (no mould worries).- awning rail (awning included)We've had it since August 2016 (bought from a friend who used it lightly during his two years of ownership) but here is what I know about its past history...Stored under carport and breathable rain cover (included) or at covered caravan storage site last 2.5 years.During last 1000 miles:- 4 new tyres- Rear brakes cleaned and adjusted- Timing and carburettor adjusted- cambelt changed- Differential refurbishedDuring last 650 miles:- Oil changed- New front brake pads- Welding work- Gearbox and differential oil changed- spark plugs changed- Kingpins greased- Underside rust spots treated and protectively paintedCondition:- engine runs well- Slight ding on rear road wheel rim- Bodywork tidy, interior in good condition (small 2" tear in ceiling fabric) all original furnishings, pop-top works fine.- Fuel gauge broken but does over 200 miles on a tank, so easy to avoid running dry (and not an MoT issue).We bought it last August (about 250 miles ago) and have enjoyed 4 camping trips in it so far. It's a nice example of a British classic that always attracts interest from other campers, and is a great way to dip your toe into campervan life, as we did. We have enjoyed it but now have a newer van with a heating system that we can use year round.posted on this bookfarce group https://www.facebook.com/groups/732898663485329/?fref=nf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Breadvan72 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Skizzer, I really love you, but now I am going to have to come round to your place and shoot you dead. Please explain to Frau Skizzer and Dog Skizzer that it's not because I'm cross and I hope it won't spoil things. BTW, the Granny looks ace in your shed, but I feel bad that I may have caused another hapless car to be chucked out into the cold, so if you want to stash Granny at my place again, just say the word.
