Jean the Commer Van

[Gladys Crew]

Heidi & I would like to announce the arrival of Jean our 3rd Commer,

On Monday we purchased another Commer Van it is a 1966 van which has been in the same family from new, Jean has been parked up in a garage for 41 years, on Wednesday I went and dragged her out of the garage and brought her home, all the wheels were ceased, the engine is ceased, the body work is rotten but a very rare van and will be back on the road shortly,

Well done to you both. A busy autumn ahead of you then... ?

Congratulations! It’s a girl. Sounded like a difficult birth but I’m sure she will come on in leaps and bounds as she grows up.

 

[Gladys Crew]

Indeed a busy autumn ahead but looking forward to it
She is grown up she is 55 years old.
But there is a little twist

BHP? Knew you were strong, but didn't know you needed that much strength to drag Jean from a shed!

It's an oil burner?
