Bought my 1970 in 1996 (or was it 1995?) for 750 quid,it was laid up in a friends mechanic garage. but it needed a new engine which coincidentally cost another 750. Wenti n eyes wide shut got involved in spannering it when I when to changea slave cylinder and teh lace ting brake pipe broke in two - I then renewed all teh pipes and much more
.. 10 years in when I built a 1776.. but finally it was getting used less and less and I felt it would deteriorate if left so I sold it just a couple of months ago after 28 year having owned over half its life.
Mixed feelings still but the proceed went on a MWB Sprinter (ex passenger ambulance) with air co electric windows, 160 HP motor

, tall enough to walk about in and sooo much space! My feeling is teh Sprinter/crafter is where the T2s were forty years ago. They're everywhere at festivals.. Sadly not the same character however...
