Nice... love that it's a Nodge.

I was next up to view this one so you beat me to it :) Looks lovely and as you say, nice to see the proper job done on the biodywork and paint by Jules. My old Dodge 50 was called Bessie so I would've kept the name ... she never let me down in years of full time travelling around Europe in my...

happy birthday !

surely its extreme rat look ?... very fashionable and sought after, takes an incredible amount of work and skill to hand craft such an authentic rusty appearance and should be valued higher than normal as a result.

Magirus Deutz ? Mate of mine had an awesome mid size Magirus coach camper many moons ago... always wanted one and have often done a search on mobile.de for one over the years. Love that one.

thanks Panky.

Can anyone tell me the total height (for clearance) of an Autosleeper with pop top (with standard ride height) ? Just wondering if my imaginary van will fit in my imaginary garage... and also how I might get on with car park height restrictions etc. Cheers, Sean

Stalking campers

How strange you should say that, my missus tells me my Commer looks like an invisible bunloaf. Fuel filter added to shopping list.

actually ... quite a lot of waffle :)

It's not for me ... it clearly exists for a start. I worry about real starting issues, not as easy to solve as imaginary ones. Besides, I'm after an imaginary pop-top. It's got a nice roof for a high top though. I'm also steering clear of Charlies as I had a nasty experience with a "bone dry"...

Spotted this on't Gumtree... https://www.gumtree.com/p/campervans-motorhomes/1975-classic-comer-stand-out-from-the-crowd-with-this-amazing-low-mileage-example-cool-and-retro/1255657564 Quick search and it appears to be a Wolfy creation with a roof grafted onto an autosleeper Pop-Top van ...

Thanks for the replies fellas... very helpful. I did put petrol in it and I must say its been very frugal... doesn't appear to have used any at all so far. I imagine the battery is well charged... can't actually check it right now so will continue to imagine. The vapour lock theory sounds...

I'm pretty sure it's because I don't have one yet, a van that is. ... but starting trouble advice welcome in advance.

Not jealous :)

Yep... already done that as I'm a good Commer short of having a good Commer. There appears to be half a really nice extension's worth in there :)

Well its looking worth the wait Jon, great work. Overdrive too. Hope you haven't had her too long without getting some use and I wish you off on adventures soon.

Some lovely original features on this van. Looks like a lot of well fettled classic camper for 13k. Found a load more photos (useful to see the interior) from when it was for sale last (in 2012?), here ... https://www.flickr.com/photos/79641877@N02/ Kermit looks like he means business too :)

It's the same all over the web ... most old threads on forums I find (and I'm looking at a lot at the moment) are now ruined as the photos can't be seen any more. They broke tinterweb :(

Congratulations and wish you happy travels with the Duke. I was tempted to bid myself but didn't in the end... so saved you a few bob ;)
