The HJ47 Purchase: A Story of Risk, Reward, and Adventure

Our new build has us thinking about that one time we bought a troopy off an ad on the internet.
In this weeks video we reminisce on our time buying Elsie, sight unseen from the other side of the country.

In a crowded world of fully sick 78/79 builds.. this vehicle had so much more interesting content to give.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Yep we are keen to pull it apart properly when we get back and give it another 40 years of life :) she deserves it! So more content to come

[@40ChannelCruiser]

I glad you guys never gave up on Elsie the Troopy and gave it a new life and took on many cool Adventures in our awesome Country!

[@OverlandTravellers]

So keen to fix her up properly now that we have the space :) I think I’ll be watching quite a few of your videos mate!

This episode was like wearing a pair of old comfy jeans. Doing a west - east crossing would be epic in a modern car but this is next level adventure.

Really enjoyed that. Thanks for putting it together Matt and Holly. Sorry about old mate in WA. We're not all like that over here :)

[@drc-increasehappiness]

before you even shared with us about the tick, I thought wow, he looks like he's not feeling too hot. I wondered if it was mold or something. ticks are a surprisingly yucky thing to encounter, biologically. hope you both are ok now....

Happily sit and watch content about crusty old banger 40 series any day. Way more entertaining and relative to those who can't afford another "game changing 78/79 build"

[@OverlandTravellers]
