...and there were this old shed in the back of a family home..
There I found this 1983/01 Troopy with genuine 138,000km (85,700 miles)in the clock. The first and only private owner bought it from South Australia's Forestry Emergency Dept. in 2003. It was parked the following year in 2004 after taking the family with it on a holiday trip to Flinders Chase National Park at Kangaroo Island, SA.
Totally genuine, all complete and featuring a denso knee freezing aircon.
Its 4spd only.
I would like to see the troopy fully restored and I even considered shipping her to reputable restorers however I'm more and more inclined to do it myself.
I'd be happy to hear your opinions even though I'm pretty keen on doing the resto alone, slowly and extremly precisely. Enjoy the first photos and let me know what are your first impressions.. Thanks!
