1987 Viscount Seabreeze and just finished renovating it , registered etc and ready to roll though had such a good time and enjoyment renovating it that we are thinking of purchasing a new van. Which one is still under debate lol..
All bar one of the hatches have new flyscreens, Bought a whole roll of that non skid soft stuff for laying in the draws and cupboards stop stuff from sliding all over the place ey.
New flyscreens throughout (windows), Scrubbing the old girl down with an ever alert eye and fingers crossed there were no leaks anywhere lol , which there wasnt..
Enjoyed the whole process and kep this little vegymite busy for month or so ..Few Dollars spent which wasnt expecting on the Gas compliance as it did need a new regulator for todays standards .
safety inspection was no probs as well as Rego ..Just need to do a wee bit of sanding and painting on drawbar(A frame i think its called).. New tyres as im not quite sure how old the ones on it are and its ready to rock n roll lol..
do they still make viscounts. haven't heard the name for years.

Viscounts were always made well.
Enjoy.
Do you have any photos of the inside reno. I would love to do a reno on a van.
Might be hard to see but new vynil tiles to the floor as well as new matresses, and full bedding..
Cushions all re-upholstered at a reasonable price..Recarpeted bedrrom area as well as under beds and cushion benches:)..
