SOLD -Mint 1978 Devon Moonraker - Ready to Camp

Discussion in 'Late Bay Classifieds' started by popester63, Apr 24, 2016.

  1. It pains me post this ad, but I have regretfully decided to sell my bus - my wife's business is stopping us from having time to get on the road enough having only managed 500 miles in each of last 3 years.

    Located in Frome, Somerset and comes with a new MOT (thru May 2017) with no advisories. Asking for £17,995 for a well sorted bus that is ready to go camping in.

    I have owned the van for 5 years and put a lot of love and money to bring her up to the very high spec I wanted, which includes:

    Exterior
    • Vege reconditioned 1600cc engine fitted 5000 miles ago - starts/runs like a dream. New clutch fitted at same time.
    • Electronic ignition.
    • Stainless steel exhaust and header.
    • Lowered - adjustable springplates and stock shocks on rear, beam adjuster and Spax adjustable shocks on front.
    • Excellent tyres all round - stock 185 on rear and 175 on front
    • New CV joints and boots.
    • Cab doors rebuilt with new seals/scrapers etc.
    • Sliding window fitted.
    • Backend rebuild last year - new inner/outer valance, chassis rails/engine surround rebuilt. New o/s lower rear corner. Work completed to very high standard by Jon at 65Deluxe.
    • Fuel lines/rubbers all replaced last year.
    • Flywheel oil seal replaced.
    • Undersealed.
    • Full electrical hookup system - Leisure battery with split charger and trickle charger. RCD with 12v and 240v sockets etc.
    • Spare stock steel wheel and also spacesaver.
    • Just Kampers cover.
    Interior
    • Bespoke beautiful solid oak interior made to my specification by a friend who is a professional cabinet maker. Includes: Main unit featuring cupboard/drawer (with hidden catches), Waeco CR50 fridge (runs on 12v and auto-switches to 240v when hooked up), Smev Combi sink/single burner; Gas/tool locker; Toplocker; Toilet/seat unit with unused Thetford Portapotti.
    • Bluebird customs full width rock and roll bed. New cushions with memory foam toppers. All retrimmed in Porcelain Green/Ivory.
    • Propex heater.
    • LED lighting.
    • Madmatz Tiles.
    • Madmatz carpet set.
    • Recaro front seats retrimmed in Porcelain Green/Ivory.
    • Newton Commercials door cards/trim panels in Porcelain Green.
    • Scat shifter.
    • Jail bars.
    • New seat belts front and rear (5 seats in total).
