Check out Granny!

Not sure my pictures will post properly but if it works then you get to see my newest addition
https://picasaweb.google.com/1071624...14942744536082

She's a '65 Ford Econoline Falcon. Couldn't afford another project so found something I could enjoy right away while still working on my AmbuLand...

Cheers
Mr. D

Re: Check out Granny!

I didn't expect this but i actually enjoy driving it way better than my old '65 VW bus. The heat is a nice bonus

Re: Check out Granny!

Just updating some pictures directly on the site before Tapachat crashes on me again!

I guessed she's a bit of a chick magnet (sorry if I'm politically incorrect)






That interior might have a cool shaggy factor but it needs to go! I'll add a bench/bed combo so that i can take my boys on trips with me. I don't wanna do too much since i already have the Ambo going but there's definitely room for improvement!

This is one option for the ceiling


And i might go the Westy style for the interior.



Cheers
Mr. D

Re: Check out Granny!

Turtle top! I looked for a while for one of those but the ones i saw had to much rust for their asking price. This one just sold locally for a great price. A bit of rust but manageable.


How about this British one, also locally owned. That one is purely amazing!
