It's lovely ...if I had the money I'd bite your hand off and collect it when I'm next up your neck of the woods at my parents'!
Old engine now removed . engine bay getting painted & a new battery tray (2p size hole in old one) fuel tank service then shiny engine fitted. no interest ?
Gumbo, if I was there instead of here I'd have that van like a shot. Good luck selling it but it's a shame to see it go
