We pick our truck up on thursday  hurrah,  from Gympie,   then the fun starts putting in the shower and toilet and a spare bed, and some of our gear.

Interesting. V e r y interesting.
No windows, or are they coming? Keep us posted on the progress of the re-do. I'm curious about how you're going to set it up.
Have fun with that.

You will have a ball doing up your truck. Our "Turtle" started life as an Isuzu NPS 300 cab/chassis and is now a very comfortable home thanks to a very handy ex panel beater and could nearly be an identical sibling to your truck. We don't have the toilet and shower inside as we wanted the extra living space.
Enjoy the experience!

Hi guys,

congratulations on your new home. It certainly is fun setting your vehicle up to suit one's needs. (albeit expensive at times!)

Have a great time and all the joy in the world in your travels.

cheers,

ozi2

Wow AC when you said truck you meant truck, I gather there is many changes/additions on the horizon. Why the "Spare" bed though AC? Is that an invitation to freeloaderssmilesmilesmile

Where have you been Lynette? I'll see you this arvo.

The truck is a novel idea. It will be interesting to see how it pans out.

Looks good and strong.
My first thought too, Hope you are putting some windows in.
Not sure about a spare bed. Will take up a bit of room. I would rather have more cupboards. I have very few cupboards in Myrtle. My first thought have a fold up one packed away for when needed.
