Get the Allen scythe too.

What's the plan? Camper or just a van?

You'll need some falafel to put in your ears if you plan on going far! Lovely old thing, though, I would happily sleep in that. As for catering vans - this is the only legitimate food use for a Walk-Thru...

Anything else can fuck off.

I assume it was an ambulance at some point?

I recall when you first mentioned this & you seemed oddly keen on it.

The idea is I can use it for car shows and events and sleep in it. There is a gas stove and stainless steel sink nearest the cab, then the rear half has two berths over the wheels. With the mattresses stowed away it has a good carrying capacity for use as a van. As the engine is very smooth and quiet I do not think mechanical noise will be an issue.

Does the sale include all the auto jumble stock you can fit in?

I know that the Squire is full-size himself but the beauty of a large van like the W-T is that you can arrange the bed across the vehicle. It is the one facet of the CF ambulance we converted that I really miss. In fact, if you arrange the bed just behind the front partition and curtain out the cab you will be able to get out of bed either side - a luxury only enjoyed by owners of massively over-valued motorhomes....

Reversing up to a viewpoint of your choice will enable those big rear doors to be thrown wide and your selected vista enjoyed at leisure as you leisurely add ketchup to your pasty. (That's not a euphemism, I am talking about after you have got out of bed....)

Is the body (pardon the pun) aluminium over ash? If you are lucky there might be some insulation in there as well...

It is a lovely thing and will give years of pleasure.
