Red Minibus

Here it is in all its glory captured by the wifes phone cam thing. I think you'll agree it looks kinda good on the end of the drive, drew many an admiring glance in the short time it was there. I got a very anxious look from a neighbour when I shouted to Martin 'just leave it on the grass verge, I'll move it next month'. I think he was jealous. Hope you don't mind me posting the piture martin, it's good advertising ;)

Yes as you can tell from the grainy image she will do anything? for a photo and was actually half a mile away with a super doopa zoom peeping through a bramble thicket at the time. Either that or the windows need cleaning ;)
 
If I can find anything to take a pic of, i'll post some tomorrow. You're just afraid you will lose your bottom place ranking :D
 
Chris believe me yours has got to be better than this. there is hardly a box section left underneath, the fluted side panels were flapping in the breeze, the rear corners had fell off and the roof was held on with the transport strap. And that was the good news:)
 
And now, here by popular request, and appearing live [8D]

Now Chris, yours dosn't seem bad at all:)
 
do you think it will fly through an mot mart,ha ha. ive got to say it but that is one heap of s--t mate ,but at least there will be a couple of useful bits on it somewhere,and after you strip it of anything good you can weigh the rest in as scrap and down here you would get £100.00 for it as scrap metal.:D:(
 
looking at it again i would deffinatly save those windows and rubbers if thay are good because i bet you would struggle to get those curved back windows off the shelf.:D
 
I have a tin of `T`cut that may help to get rid of some of that surface rust, cor blimee martin, what have you bought? Did they have big windows.
 
fantastic i have now seen a van that is worse than mine when i picked it up:) if you get you self a very large block of cheese you should be well away as you have possibly the worlds only commer cheese grater:D a proper museum piece
