  1. just joined the site and thought I’d say hi, names Anthony and I’m 56 yo, I’m in the process of looking for a camper to restore and use for myself and family, I currently restore classic minis (as a hobby) so have the gear to tackle most jobs welding/bodywork etc,
    I used to go with my dad delivering frozen foods back in the early 70s and the van was a prototype bay panel van and I grew to love them from then, any advice anyone can give would be great! I live in filey North Yorkshire so if there are any members nearby that would be willing to show me their van (when allowed) not any for sale locally as usual! There all 100s miles away!
    Looking forward to joining you all on the roads soon
    Cheers

    Hi there , from sunny Southampton.

    I remember trying to undo tight nuts on a Mini and ended up lifting it off the axle stands... above my head... while I was lying under it.
