toyota coaster


When we purchased this old girl (1987) it had drawers and a double bed, a real hippy style fit out. After 6 months work (just tinkering), it now has 2 single beds, shower and a flushing dunny. Some where along the journey I have fitted  a 400w solar system and 200 ah battery system and new fridge. Plumbing nearly completed, still waiting on a water filter and a grey water tank. when all that is done I will fit the annex and put a coat of paint on the outside, thinking a white roof, white 2/3 of the way down with a burgundy bottom with a full white backend. Nearly ready to do a test sleep soon. will put up pics when I have a bit more finished inside

cheers

Ps it owes me about $15 to $17 000 atm, but no more big ticket items to buy, I reckon I have enough paint o paint it laying around, but all the little items (packet screws maybe $15 to $20) add up quick, have most receipts but to scared to add them up

Entire white colour on rear will show up all the dust - Consider taking the burgundy around the rear.

Hope you had some fun doing it up.

Travel safely.
