Orange County CAF's: up to no good

I currently have a full platform that folds open on the tailgate to give me 6'+ of bed length (I'm a SB) which I can completely enclose with my softopper when its cold out. I hate the fact that I can't put large items (like an ice chest) back there when it's in, as well as not having drawers to get to stuff in the back.

Something like this (maybe a 3/4 width platform) would allow me to still put taller stuff back there as well as have access points to the stuff under the platform. Damn.....now you got me all excited to cut up my old one and try it out! haha!

 

I made a simple platform across the whole bed with storage underneath when I got my bestop. I soon realized getting in and sitting upright sucked. I think the half cab bed might work better.

5'8" 180 It's not the 5'8" part that gets me its the 180. Hehe

 

Pull out couch?

 

Same here. Same complaint as well. I think the little "walkway" would help with that too.

Shit, might as well copy the back seat of my bus and just make one side a pullout. haha!

 

I sure miss my bus. Should have never sold it.

 

I know I'll be saying the same thing when I finally get rid of mine, but I don't drive it anymore so it needs a new home.

 

I'm with this. Make that shit custom!

 

Don’t do it.

 

Need money for a house.

Unless i somehow fall into $40K+ before I get rid of it, it'll get sold. I want a house more than the bus

 

What year is it? Asking for a friend.

 

61'. All original. 13 window with a "changing space" pop up

It'll probably be at the Dec 3rd Pomona swap meet for sale

 

Way out of my range. I am looking for another 71 westy

 

Now that's cool.

How much ya plan to sell for. Uhh asking for a friend.

 

Life's a learning experience. If you didn't try to learn something new ever you wouldn't know how to walk.

 

I'll just quote my previous comment again for this reply.

 

As much as I can get!

I've seen similar buses go for $50k +- on The Samba. Probably spend a grand or so to have it repainted, then start high and hope for the best. Mine is pretty unique though, and has alost zero body damage. Pretty hard to find that way.

 

Damn. Ya I've always wanted a bus but finding one in good, working condition is not easy and certainly not cheap. I'll keep dreaming though

 

Good for you. You don't have to be a constant douche drowning others in negativity. I'm trying to learn how to do shit on my own. I don't give two fucks about your useless opinion. I know I don't have experience but I'm LEARNING. So go fuck off
