1972 OZ import: Engine Fail :(

hello my name is Si this is my 72 cross over bay "ozzy"
Had it about 3 weeks now done quite a bit so far.
Started of like this

Seriously lacking any cool when I picked it up, since them I have fitted at 3" type 2 detectives narrowed beam 2.5 " drop spindles and adjustable IRS Spring plates. Oh and changed the wheels from some gas burner reps ,not sure if these are staying as the offset on the front wheels is giving me major rubbing problems .

 

Now looks like this

 

Currently running 195 50 15 tyres on the front with a offset of et 20 , going to try some 165 5o 15s if that don't work then the gas burners will have to go and some 4.5" fusch reps will have to go on. If I can find any
Any other suggestions for high offset 5x112 wheels are welcome, I'm thinking et 35 or 40 maybe

 

Maybe they have been refitted later?
Not sure what the fit out is - doesnt look like a Sopru pop top

 

Could be Dormobile...there was an assembly plant in Melbourne.

 

Thanks for the comments chaps .Defo an oz import it has all the paper work with it and the vin tag thing has oz stuff all over it .
Oh and the biggest give away its not rusty lol
The roof was fitted new in 05 but had the same dormobile one on it before.

 

Why - we never use em!
Especially in QLD - if its raining its dangerous to be out in it, and 300 days of the year its not raining

 

Anybody know what kind of radio aerial it's missing ..? Has 2 little holes on the front panel

 

Stock high v lowered

 

So this is the current state of the interior, it's a bit home made looking and I definitely think there is room for improvement. I have started looking for a replacement set of cupboards does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks

 

went to work in the bus today might start doing it more often so much fun ....

 

This happened today

 

Putting in new kitchen units recovering all the bed cushions and making new curtains, should look a million times better when it's done.

 

Another day another new set of wheels, hopefully this will be the last set as they fit perfectly with no rubbing on the front!
specs 4.5" and 5.5" et20




Got some nice tuck on the front now!



backs fit really nice


resisting all temptations to lower it more

ps its sitting a bit higher than normal because I have removed the old camper interior.
