We are almost grey Yesmads but I just had to share this...
We have just returned home to Tassie after an 11,200 km trip to East Arnhem Land (home via lightning Ridge).
Most of the trip we were towing a camper trailer behind the trusty Pajero.
Whilst in 'The Ridge' we were just casually looking on Gumtree and found this in Coffs Harbour... a 750 km (each way) side trip later and we were the proud owners of BB the big blue bus (our name for her).
Nearly 7m long and 3.5m high, BB is based on a Mitsubishi Canter 4WD chassis - one of only two of these made. Air bag suspension, 4 batteries, king size bed etc etc
- how could we resist?
Now we can't wait to do her up the way we want and hit the road again!
How about that!! Met you at lightening ridge after the big storm.
Love your big blue bus!! Did you sell your trailer?

Hi Diane, small world indeed.
We still have the trailer if you know anyone that wants one
We love our bus - we will be doing lots of small shakedown trips here in Tassie to get it right for next years travelling.
Cheers
Alan

Some military use the canter 4wd trucks, so it will be a tough vehicle.Love to have one myself.Is it the turbo 6 cylinder? Do the west coast- plenty of 4wding over there.If you are ever in Qld , take it to Fraser is.Its one of the best 4wd destinations in OZ, and perhaps the world.Great bus. Bill

WOW!
That looks to have so much potential. Be keen to follow any posted developments with BB.

BBB looks loverly.
Could be a collectors item too, a good investment even.
Happy travels.
