thanks, kiwi - i'm real torn between the House Truck "A real Cutie" 1949 OLB Bedford petrol 4 speed - (for 19 K) - or the acme hand wringer for 5 $. (suitable for caravans ....gotta think laundry )
interesting 'ebay' (equivalent) site though ..... couldn't find a thing i was looking for - guess i don't got that LINGO yet.

good good good, Karl!
the toyota hiace's are cute little vans - is it exactly what we're looking for? (i don't know yet ) ..... it has been recommended to us (by one of nz's leading eco tourism operators...) to get a van when we arrive - great for touring, great as an instant travel 'home' on wheels, especially with child .... (& we LOVE camping, outdoor cooking, ....)
i'll keep this site marked - thank you so much, Karl

PS: with a van like that - we'd have to 'convert' it ourselves into a camper/sleeper ...sometimes that's a good idea i think ... especially when you don't need all the bells and whistles .... |
