OK as part of my clean up I have a HT (1970 model) windowless panel van.
202 3 on the tree.
Pretty straight body except the left front fender has a bend in it and rust, could be repaired I suppose if you are determined enough but replacement would be easier.
there is some body rust like in a couple of points on the gutters and corners of the doors etc but not terminal.
HOWEVER the floors are almost non existent, zilch, absent, these floors are dead, especially in the front although the transmission tunnel seems ok.
I haven't really inpected the chassis frames etc so can't comment on them.The subframes can be seen through the floor and again could be repaired but that is not a promise.
The glass is all there, the spare wheel cover is there and straight not much rust, the tailgates are straight but the upper one has a bit of rust the lower seems OK.
The dash pad is stuffed, the bench seat is pretty rough and the door trims are fair. The trafficator lever is missing but the gear lever is there.
The motor was recon a 5 or 6 years ago and runs ok.
The vehicle has been laying around on the farm for about 4 years so the brakes are definitely suspect as is the whole vehicle.
The vehicle looks pretty good really from a distance and it has possibilities, I fixed floors just as bad in my tonner.
The vehicle is in Perth WA (or will be if I get any interest) and can be inspected but I need to know if there is any interest before i bring down.
Also must be sold I have no room and the farm has been sold so I can't store it.
Knowing the windowless vans are rare I was wondering if around $800 would be a fair price?
I am open to offers as I said it has to go, I will be putting it in Quokka if no interest from here.
thanks

Hey,
I think $800 dollars is fair because if some one is going to do it up they wont need the brakes and stuff like that but rust is a worry but is also depends on where it is.

the one place you say you haven't checked is what will make it worth lots or not = the rear chassis rails...

I didn't check there because it has been raining for a week and I didn't feel like laying on my back in mud and slush to jack it up (dangerous as well on the muddy surface) to check, that's why I made it clear I had not checked that area. I went into a fa
