As the title. The Thornes park show is back after a long pause. Starts at 4pm 4th July. I will be there with the V8.

After nearly 13 years of ownership and many many changes I am finally onto the interior. I have sold the camper interior that was made for my van. It's now going to be more of a day van. I'm looking at boarding in the rear corners before carpeting them. I need something flexible that will bend...

I had this made by a joiner friend for my van. The engine is now in the way so this lot is for sale. It is unfinished and needs sanding and painting. Includes the cushions, 2 burner hob (never been used) and a dog bowl sink. £100 for it all.

My V8 van will once again be on display in a heated marquee. Come and say Hi. Some bloke from Grimsby called Guy Martin will also be there.. https://straightliners.events/events/the-speed-show/

This 250kg lump of cast iron jumped from a shed into my Focus. The poor neglected thing just needed a nice warm home.. Owned by my cousin who I haven't seen for 40 years. She used to attend steam fairs with it. It ran when parked but its now siezed solid. Its a Lister D

We've all seen those little Fiat 500s driving around? Well... they have a 1" longer wheelbase than a Commer!

Record breaking Cars. Bikes, trucks, boats (bluebird), the world's fastest shed, dragsters, jet cars (Inc the one that tried to kill Hammond) and some celebs as well as a certain blue Spacevan will be on display in heated marquees at Elvington Air field near York on the 25th and 26th Feb. £10...

I've been selected by a committee of organisers to race alongside hot rods, rat rods and retro cars,bikes and vans on the sand in Bridlington next April! It's a 4 day event. Can't wait. Lots of showing, cruising and racing. I'm not sure of the date as yet but it's around 20th April.

This looks really nice. Might be a tad overpriced though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134245604153?hash=item1f41a95b39:g:8FgAAOSwYSNjLIbw

Oops.. we did it did it lol

This has just been rescued. Looks a tidy van. I pointed him this way.

Has anybody replaced the crappy bulbs in their Smith's instruments with LEDs? If so which ones and are they brighter?

No idea why it has a record player instead of a stove. Exhaust out the back too ?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1968-Commer-Autosleeper-/175112125122?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

Found these on Twitter.. looks familiar, even has the missing upper grille. I see a T shirt coming on..

Looking back (see what I did there..) to a discussion from ages ago. What alternative wing mirrors are people using? Whilst I love the original ones on my van I have blindspots big enough to hide the entire Atlantic Fleet. The N/s is the worst to the point I need a copilot for lane changes.

My Spacevan engine cover is missing the seal. I'd like to fit one but the issue I have is there is a lip around 2/3 and the remaining 1/3 doesn't. Can anybody provide pics and or a source for a seal/s please. Cheers
