Welcome aboard Bondan and Chris Van.

Hey new here from Perth. I was a van owner many moons ago and am considreing gettin back into one. my 1st car was a XC 5.8 GS PV. which sadly i don't have any longer. I currently own a HZ tunner which i have been picking away at for the last 4 yrs.

Welcome Aboard!  

The XC looks tidy.  Any more pics to share.

A few of us have built One Tonners as well and would like to see some pics of yours.  Feel free to start a Thread and share pics in the "Utes & One Tonners" Section.

Welcome aboard Leeva.

You've tried to insert a Table as opposed to a Picture.

There are several ways to upload a picture to the Forum. We have a couple of "How To's" in our Forum "How To" Section. Follow/ Click On this Link: Forum "How To's"

Hi there

Craig from Bayswater Vic here... Was sorta around the van scene early 80s with friends in Eastern Suburbs. My band back then did a few vanner functions and played at one Nats. Am 51 now and have had a WB van kicking around for a while. Got it pretty straight and did most of the suspension and removed rust. Ran outta money and time a few years ago but now i am gearing up to getting it back on the road. Seriously looking at LS1 now (have a motor and looking for an auto) and hope this time I can stay with it

Cheers
Craig

Welcome mate, i too had a van in the very early 80's.
hung around the diamond valley area.
plenty of drive-ins around here back then too.
went to bulleen, northland, kingsbury, croydon, wantirna,  coburg etc.

Welcome Craig.
Looking forward to seeing the build and catching up.
Plenty of vans and activities with the Melbourne chapter.

welcome to the forum mate.

Plenty of good info and knowledgeable people on here, feel free to start a new build thread for your van in the Your Project section.

Cheers and welcome aboard.
Rob

thanx folks...

Yeah its been sitting for a few years but its gaining momentum again. Was going to persist with a GMH v8 but now committed to the LS1. Just got an auto. Have the LS1 from my VY SS (400,000km so may need a freshen up) and chasing mounts and wiring. Exhaust teed up so now there is no turning back

Hey guys, just joined and posted my van up

My name is Dylan, currently live in Warrnambool, Vic but moving to Lang Lang, Vic in a few weeks time.
I'm a single dad, and drive an 88 XF Falcon Panelvan. I'm also into motorbikes and guitar.

hi im lambchop
I own a 1999 falcon van (xh?) its not done up or anything, plain white, ex prison service or police as there are mounts for a cage inside, I think it might be a dog van which is appropriate. Its not done up or anything, infact a friend of mine calls it a shed on wheels- which was a bit rich as I was moving stuff for him at the time.
But it has developed an interesting habit...the allegedly Smart Lock prevents you from starting the car about half the time, this is easily remedied by a sharp tap to the underside of the dash. Quite why this circumvents the smartlock I will never know but it does. So does anyone know amore permanent way of bypassing the smartlock or resetting it?
oh and im thinking of selling it so if anyone might be interested I live in Brunswick.

Hi guys and welcome, I hope you enjoy your time here if you need to know anything or help with something don't hesitate to ask there is alway's someone willing to help

Regards Tony.

Hi just joint the forum, My name Brett and my wife is Holly, we brought our first van about 17 years ago. We cruised in it as a daily driver for a few years and eventually did it up together as a replica Sandman. Today we own an Original HX Sandman which we get out whenever we can.
Looking forward to being part of the Vanning forum.

Gidday Brett

Welcome aboard to Holly and you!

Love your Sandman! Very Tidy indeed.

I've just activated Holly's account as well.

For the benefit of those who haven't met Brett, Holly and Family (sorry I've forgotten your Daughter's name) I can assure you they will fit right in. The right attitude, enjoy having Fun and a Wicked twist in Humour!

Glad your here Brett &Holly.
When you work it out post up a couple of pics and show it off to us..

Welcome to the forum Brett and Holly, and welcome to the club!  It is great to have you guys on board!  

I hope you enjoy the forum, there is a wealth of knowledge and information on here and I look forward to your contributions.

It can take a bit to work things out, with posting pictures and the like, but you will work it out, there are some 'How To's' to help in this respect.

In the meantime, here is a pic of Brett and Holly's van for everyone to see:
