    Forum costs and continuation?

    Hi Admin/John, I've set up a small monthly donation. Whilst it's not as busy on here these days, I really value this forum and the people on here. Plus it's not awful Facebook. I do miss the old meet ups! I also miss driving my Commer, but that's another story....

    Replacement panels?

    I'm really hoping Martin will resume at some point, I'd love to get a big order in (no idea why I didn't do this sooner!). Bit of a shame that the main businesses supporting our vans have been and gone.

    Rustival 9th March 2024

    I'm rather tempted as the amount of tat (BX excluded) likely to be on display will probably be decent - right up my street! It's a bit of a drive however, so I'd have to go up in my daily.

    Speedy Spares Closing Down

    Christ this is rubbish news, but something that crossed my mind that might happen only the other week strangely enough. That shop is relatively local to me. Not been in years, but it was an amazing old school Aladdin's Cave inside; well worth a visit, which is exactly what I'm going to do now...

    2024

    Happy New Year to you all! I'm wishing for a more peaceful 2024, except in the garage, which has been too peaceful in the Commer repairs department over the last decade (o_O).

    Barn find Autosleeper

    Wow, wonder how much that'll go for, it's solid! Shame about the interior, but rather that than untold rust.

    Minibus on Ebay

    Hi guys. I had my eye on this one for many many years. It used to live down the side of a house in Wallington, Surrey for as long as I can remember. The reg number always confused me; assumed it was ex-services. I think the axle was removed for an extended period for some reason, but agree...

    Commer at Lakes Volvo Breakers, Bedford

    Just been watching a Furious Driving video on YouTube and noticed a Commer during his walk through of a Volvo breakers! Not sure which conversion it is, but despite being rotten as a pear, may be a source of parts for someone. I believe this yard will be closing at some point, so don't hang...

    Dash Rail Removal

    Hi folks. I'm trying to remove the black dash rail from Tulip, but can't work out how it comes off. I've removed obvious bolts, but it still seems fixed at either end. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Free Commer Short Engine

    Free to collector! This is Pootle's old engine that I myself collected recently. I've grabbed the bits I need, but I can't justify keeping the short block, so is surplus to requirements. Would like to pass it on to someone on here who'll benefit. Apparently it had about 60k miles on it and ran...

    Pootle getting hot and bothered

    Hi Tony, I think there is the scope for making the rad taller and also thicker. A bit of modern tech should help keep things cool. Have you moved your awkwardly placed additional rad??
