Luto Van

[martin maltas]

Spent Sat morning removing the gearbox and clutch from the luton. The clutch was stuck when I bought it, just never had the time to do it.
Started up after a short period of cranking, runs really smooth. It has only done 20700m, and sounds really nice. The underside has been sprayed with oil and in superb condition, just the usual rust round the skirts and doors.
Drove it back into the 'Museum', great apart from the lack of brakes :I

Fantastic!! sounds like an easier resto job than the detector van (don't they all!) wonderful van[8D]

well done martin [8D], does it actually go fast enough to need brakes

"you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"

It does sit nicely on the road, the suspension must have had an easy working life [^]

Looking at the photo, you either need air in them tyres or the tarmac still hasnt cured..
