Yeah it was, did not want to muck around and miss out on this one, so 4 hour round trip and the deal was done.

Van is moving along slowly, interior removed and rust repairs to begin.

Is there any one in Aus. that might have some rear cargo doors, mine were removed some time in the late 60's when it was converted to a camper, I appreciate its a tall ask but you never know.
