PASSED MOT WITH NOTHING TO DO BUT THE OLD BOY PRE FITTED 5 NEW TYRES AND NEW SHOCKS ALL ROUND
CAB AREA IS LIKE A TIME WARP, NOT EVEN DUST BEHIND THE SPEEDO OR GAUGES AND STEERING WHEEL IS MINT

IF I GET THE ASKING PRICE, YOU ALSO GET A 1970'S DRIVE AWAY AWNING WHICH ARE QUITE RARE AND WORTH A BOB OR TWO NOWADAYS.
BAD POINTS
NEEDS NEW ENGINE LID AS BOTTOM IS ROTTEN

FRONT OFFSIDE PANEL UNDER INDICATOR HAS HAD SOME FILLER AT SOME POINT AND THEN COVERED IN UNDERSEAL
BOTTOMS OF BOTH FRONT DOORS ON THE INSIDE ARE STARTING TO GO BUT AGAIN RUST FREE ONES ARE READILY AVAILABLE
THE OLD BOY HAD A FETTISH FOR PAINTING BLACK UNDERSEAL STUFF ON RUSTING AREA’S BUT THEN PUT IT EVERYWHERE 3 INCHES HIGH AROUND THE VAN TO MAKE IT LOOK EVEN
I HAVE TAKEN IT ALL OFF APART FROM THE ABOVE AREAS, AND THE SIDES INCLUDING SLIDING DOOR ARE SOLID AS ARE ARCHES BUT SOME OF THE PAINT HAS CHIPPED AWAY BUT SHOWS ITS GOOD METAL BENEATH
INTERIOR COULD DO WITH SOME ADDING TO SO YOU CAN CAMP AT SHOWS ETC
ALL THE ABOVE BAD POINTS ARE EASILY RECTIFIED IF YOU HAVE THE WELDING SKILS ETC BUT DON’T BE PUT OFF BY ANY OF THEM AS THIS VAN CAN BE USED AS IT IS NOW WITH NO WORRIES AND DONE OVER THE WINTER
