LOL... in Australia we have another very famous expression "Show us ya t.ts" I cant open the roof, i am working off site unfortunately. As you can impagine i cant wait to get back and try to start it up, AND open the roof.

in 1967, At the time of the TS4, Chrysler took over the roots group and had an existing agreement for diesel engine supply from cummins. So there was no point spending $$ on the TS4.

Noise is one of the reasons i like the TS3, they sound fab.. At least the ones on youtube..

Hi, Though i should start a new thread. I have a TS3 215cu 135Hp engine. Has anyone put a TS3 in a Commer Van ? I have the engine, but no drive line. Any info on driveline compatibility would be welcome. (i need everything,including the flywheel) Van No 3 has no motor or box, but a...

hmmm... if it makes you better he had to wait 3 months before i picked it...oh wait that wont help. lol. BTW: I found a commer TS3 engine in very good condition, but it does not have a drive line. Does anybody know if a drive line (clutch, bellhousing, trans..etc) from another model will...

Wow.. you pick it... This is one of a kind, the only van with this feature, i mean rare. The parking sensors also have an in-built camera, valve powered of course, with a stunning 3 inch round B&W display.

Hi, No 4 has arrived. I bought it for $300, and had to wait for months to get transport to bring it home on a truck. It has been started for a few years, but used to run. Its an Auto camper in Melbourne, Australia. Am hoping to play with it in december, am just to busy now. I have 4 of...

I met a guy serving at a coffee shop and he saw i bought a book on the lancaster. He casually mentioned his father was a tail gunner and jumped when it was hit seconds before it blew up, wandered through germany for a week, became a pow and survived. He gave me his fathers hand written diary to...

I went to Western Australia recently where there is a complete Avro Lancaster. For some strange reason i am fanatical in a nice way about this plane and to see it, sit inside it, go from one end to the other end and ponder being shot, left me silent in respect for those who piloted these...

Tks for the flyer of a milk van, but i need more details to make it. I have not seen a current picture of a one, it must exist, surely all could not have been scrapped...

Picked up Van No 3. No motor or Gearbox. So its easier to push around. It has the orange blinkers and the rust is not bad at all. The windowed bus still does not have a running motor, its too cold at the moment. But maybe within a month it should be moving at least. The most...

Love the pictures, will scan and send them to one when i get a chance..

yes these are the two that were on ebay, when i first saw them i rang hi and made him and offer. The "for sale" is the first one i bought....its in the front so many people come and aske me details about it..need to get that sign off. Its not for sale. They decorate the front lawn and driveway.

This is another pic of the most rusty, but running commer van. Its a Series II, 1964. Number 3, is also a van, but i have not picked it up yet, this is the only view of it, hope the other side is in similiar condition. This one had the motor in pieces in the back, so transplant will be...

Thanks for all the nice comments. I would really like to see a picture of a restored or nice early PB bus or van. As i said all i have found are the orange blinkers at the front version, not the single white blinker. There must be some "LBXXXX" ones in the UK, surely. I would like to see...

I know this is not strictly a commer thread BUT ! I know a guy who has two TS3 engines. He wants a fair bit of money for them as they are setup for Boats. Having heard the TS3 engine sound on youtube.com, the though of a knocker in a commer sounds interesting..but not having seen a TS3 i...

I am in the North of Melbourne, in Pascoe Vale. Also near the DFO ! The bus is going to get the most attention as its virtually rust free. Will put a few more pics as the work progresses. Is there any photos of a restored bus like mine ? Need some inspiration. Re the color, its green on...

Hi, Love this forum. I have recently found three commers, after searching for a while. The Van you see is a 64 Series II. Its very rusty but it does start and move up and down the road. The Commer bus (LBXXX) is also a Series II, The body is in great condition, almost 98% rust free. The...
