Had this a few years now ,I fitted an air con since the first picture and still in the process of renovating bit by bit. We're happy with the old girl and suspect she'll outlast us.

BIG Speakers,you have there. Looks brand new inside and the aircon looks great.
Have a friend who just sold his identical model,he realised he hadn't used it despite spending hours and hours renovating it.
Then the rego needed renewing and they hadn't even been away in it.
Now he's just bought another and he says "This Time"

tv is mounted on a modified wall mount bracket so locked in place, stays there when travelling.

The old vans with a bit of TLC can often end up being a better unit than the newer ones it looks great well done.

Hi Rowdy
We have just bought a 1981 Millard and it looks almost identical!
I like what you have done inside, ours has been slightly modified by previous owner.
We plan to modernise the interior as we will be living in it full time, welcome any suggestions / comments you have.
(I have found her to be very heavy to tow!)
This is our first van and my very first post, hope to follow your adventures.
Cheers -Weg
