The sink looks as though it could be re-used
Sorry but I hope you didn't pay much for that.

Um, yeah, that's defo not a westy.
And why would you put the fridge there FFS?!
Rather a sorry looking van - inside and out.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do with it.

I think Kev's just withdrawn his 25p offer
I would take what's salvageable out (engine, g/box, running gear etc) and scrap it. Sorry but that's all it's fit for.
Ian.

It does look a little sorry for itself and yes, the fridge is in a barmy place!
It is salvageable though, got a couple of people interested and if not then I will consider it as a long term project.

How long term though? The Sun will eventually run out of fuel. Though admittedly long after your money and patience

If those others interested in it are willing to pay more than you payed I would snap there hands off, its only worth breaking !

Oh la la, suddenly my Daffy is looking decidedly 'mint'

as for the fridge position, makes perfect sense to me. No need to bend or move from yr comfy seated position to grab a cold one
I think you boys are either lacking in imagination (Ahem) or just being realists - sadly in this case I fear the latter

Good luck whatever you decide.

Is it a homebrew interior or a conversion?

Looks like a homebrew from an autosleeper donor interior.

It was fired up about 6 months ago so still runs and moves under its own steam, the welding for mot purposes could be done and I thought maybe as a kind of day bus rather than a full restoration.
Surely worse has been repaired/rebuilt?

. I bet it can be fixed. Whether or not it is a financially viable proposition is another matter.

Anything CAN be saved but why would you want to ? You have no emotional (and hopefully financial) attachment to this shed so let it go before you have good money stuck out in it.
