The van has arrived!

Posted on 27 March 2009 by admin

Yes, after too long a wait the LDV Convoy that I was after has finally been purchased and is now parked on my driveway being stripped out.

I have attached some images below for you  guys and girls and will post some more updates later this weekend.  To be honest I am a little bit knackered from stripping out the ply-lining, dashboard and cab area, door trim, and floor.

Once these were off I discovered a build up of dust that could only be described as having it’s own landscape!  Oooh and I also found an authentic 2007 banana skin tucked behind the dash.  Lovely!

So there we go, one step closer to turning this van into a campervan.

And for those of you who want to know, yes it is an ex Parcel Force in GPO Red, LDV Convoy, Hi-Roof, LWB 3.5tonne, 2.4L, 90PS, Ford Transit Duratorque TD.  How did you guess? ha!

And I’m going to bed, hope all is well with your world. Special Shout out to Kate, whom I have learnt so much about.  May your trip bring you all you want it to.

G’Night,

    Oh my gosh… first… thanks for the Shout Out :) You are very sweet. It’s fun learning about people all over the world on this little electronic box we often find ourselves glued to. Second, knackered? :) ~ Third, I am so excited for you now that you have the ex Parcel Force in GPO… etc… and yes, I knew it! LOL It really is exciting that your journey will be starting soon. I’m a bit stuck right now in bad weather, but since I have no time table, I’m ok with hanging for an extra day where I am.

    Talk with you soon Si….
