hah thanks all yes persevered with the rebuild because the body style is unusual. they are a trades vehicle setup I've only seen one other LWB for sale in NZ. heaps of room in the back, fits a queen mattress with still about 700mm space.
yeah i found it , pics in a thread from January

i know it says one thread per vehicle sorry it's the name change
got bigger wheels since.
i documented the whole rebuild and I think by now I would have some useful info for people maybe on aspects of the undercarriage and problem solving.
It starts here with picking up the van and then driving it about a thousand kilometers home
