Week 2: Where do we begin? 
We spent a great 1st week having breakfast and meetings in
Keith and having friends drop in for a look.
We dedicided, on advice from our handy man, Poste, to keep from the bathroom forward and gut the rest. So the next day, Danny demolished 75% of the interior (keeping the fridge, stove, sink, knobs & electrical fittings) and we dumped about 1tonne of ply wood at the Reddo tip.
(I do love a visit to the tip, especially the pile of twisted metal bikes, chairs, and misc. metal items)
Then Danny began chipping away at the rust, did lots of revving of the 250 crossflow motor and said on several occasions: "I love this motorhome". 
We went to the metal yard looking for parts, and they put us onto Brett's Camper Care down the road in Clontarf. Brett was a good bloke and told us to keep our small 3 way fridge and restore the windows rather than buy new ones. He also gave us a utility door he had lying around.
We'll get him to check over the motor when the time comes.
End of week 2 and we are still v. excited when we open the door and see Keith waiting outside.
