Well always dreamed about owning a COE and finally managed to get one , will be here next Tuesday,
It needs some work , But it's on it's OG chassis with some newer truck axle's bolted up to it,
Its a shame that some of the panels have been blasted as inside the cab seems nice and I do like a bit of patina, if i can get some of the white primer off and there's red underneath I will try and blend in the other blasted panels if it can ,
Plan's are to put it on air bag's so it sit's on the floor when parked and the ride is alright , build a AirStream type ally clad camper on the back with a 60's Lear jet style door , had the idea on my head for many years, now just never done it, or maybe a flat bed to take the Datsun round first then a camper....
Probably stick a Cummins 6BT in , but need to see if I can get the Bentley Turbo V8 going first but at around 14 MPG that's not really a option but will see,
think this thread maybe a long one
