How he looked having bought him from Ebay unseen in 2009

How he looks now after a Galv chassis bulkhead and front panel
rebuild in 2011/2012 with lots of help from friends far and
wide!

My wife and I went on honeymoon in CliVE late last year and had
a wonderful time touring the east coast of Scotland.
http://www.steamscenes.org.uk/tti/14/161_0107.jpghttp://www.steamscenes.org.uk/…
With the recent purchase of a Sankey (So we don�t need to use
the inside of the landrover to move stuff) It was decided that
we could go the full hog and fit out the back so we can use it
as a camper more often.
Luckily I had a couple of sheets of ply in stock before this
whole 28days later stuff kicked off.
I�ve also taken the opportunity to fit my propex and second
180ah battery.
We went from this;

To this

http://www.steamscenes.org.uk/tti/14/161_0128.jpg
And then fitting it all in the back

We had a memory foam mattress in the cellar so that became the
cushions (I�ve still got to cover these when I work the process
for making box cushions.

We�ve ended up with a 6ft by 4ft bed that is super comfy and the
whole thing comes out with six screws.
I�ve still got a few things to finish up over the next week or
so.
I�m highly likely to be seconded from my role in the NHS Into
front line work this week to enable some of our hard working
nurses to move to the new Nightingale Hospital in Harrogate so
progress may slow down a little.

Looking good old bean. Nice idea. Unfortunately I�m just a
smidge to long to lay down properly in mine.

I�ve been cracking on with the camper interior in CliVE. We
camped out in the garden in the back over the Easter weekend as
part of our scout groups attempt to raise A little money for the
NHS charities.

The height of the sideboard was determined by the height of the
4.5kg butane bottle for the propex and hob that will be fitted
to the rear tailgate. I decided to make use of the handle as a
shelf support as a bit of an in joke with the wife about the
back being light and airy but needing four candles to brighten
the place up.

I�ve managed to get my electric hookup fitted up out of the way
with a cubby hole to keep the lead in. I fitted a female socket
on the landrover so my cable has 2 male ends and is less likely
to go for a walk while camping.

I�ve got the material cut for the doors and we have gone for a
table that hinges up at the far end. I�m waiting on hinges and
door locks.
I�ve been using a jig saw for all of this as that�s all I have
so it�s been a case of following drawn on lines and taking
things slow.
Hope you all had a quiet Easter.

You're a clever lad , aren't you?
You did very well to source one of the shovel - shaft shelf
props. They are rare.
A truly useful truck bud. Power to your elbow. wdesmle

Aaaghh - no - highly unsafe if not illegal!
If you, or someone else, pulls the plug out of the socket on
your vehicle before the plug on the site post the pins will be
exposed and live stg
