    My 69 Overlander Journey

    Best of luck with this project- it looks like a serious one. The 60's models are my personal faves, and deserve rescuing.

    Starting on the interior

    Did the same to mine! Found rot in the floor that someone had tried to cover up. I have now painted all the interior walls Safety Orange and I'm going to add Florescent Green and Silver stripes on the interior. Do you plan to restore it? Are you going to customize it?

    That is hilarious! It will be on the list. Right now my friends call it my, propane tank, lead zeppelin, aluminum pickle, and they call me crazy. We have plenty of time to figure something out....i figure 12 to 16 months

    My 69 Overlander Journey

    Here are the pictures I took in Feb of this year, when it was still sitting in the woods next to the PO's house. This is when we fell in love . And yes, that is roofing tar above all the windows, door, roof seams, and roof rivets. He was missing 6 pieces of glass, and one frame. The rear large window was missing the frame and the glass. The large front window is cracked plexi, and the two front streetside windows are plexi. The two front wing windows are also cracked plexi. There is a small amount of damage to the street side fender well. It looks like a tire blow out dinged it up pretty good. Other than these issues, the exterior is straight and strong. I was not concerned at all with the interior, because I knew that i was gutting it from the very start. Sorry for changing tenses in my description, this is all past tense. i am just trying to catch yall up to speed. So don't be fooled by the speed of my first posts, I am not working with a 10 man crew. It is just little me, and my iphone blaring Pandora.

    OK- Need a lesson on how to post pictures on a blog...
