I did`nt bother starting the engine so I have no idea what its like mechanically but the body and coachbuilt was enough to put me off, oh yes and it was pretty rotten underneath as well, the rear outriggers and sills are shot. The seller also assured me that Commer doors are not fluted at the bottom they are all flat sheet metal or filler....so at least I learned something on the wasted trip
Bloody Commer`s!

Its certainly not a gem!
It could be a good project for some one and it could be used as is and restored/saved as you go along, it will need lots and lots of work but if its cheap enough to buy in the start, say £500, then its worth a punt. But I would take the sellers description with a pinch of salt, unless all the welding has been done it is not solid underneath, far from it!

This has now been relisted. The chassis is no longer 'solid as a rock', but requiring '2 outer riggers part of o/s inner sill'

I wonder why some people use font size 40 to write their ads. It definitely puts me off having to scroll down every five lines.
