Default The Bongo Caravan

I have posted random pics of our Caravan in various threads, but now that we have a new section for non car projects, I thought that I'd share the journey of our 1981 Viscount Caravan Project...

When we bought it and picked it up from Tamworth NSW in late Feb 2018...







Arriving home to Newcastle after a slow and steady 5 hour trip...



Some of you may recognise the Beastie Wagon...

The wife's expectations for the interior...




We played around with a few different internal design ideas - weight distribution / functionality were the two main considerations...




And then the strip down began...




Our challenge was to have it ready for Heathcote in June...
