How many vans have you now since I've known you? First meet we had in ipswich I think you had a white one, then you had the tipper then this? or was there another in between the tipper and this one? Oh and the camper in there somewhere

[transitandy]

Hi m8 im on number 14 now
There is pictures of 12 of them in my main gallery
all except my first transit in 2001/2002 which i think was a mk3 1989 f reg 1.6 van, that got swapped for a p100 pick up, which i wish i still had then the second one a knackerd mk3 1988 e reg minibus i brought in 2003/2004, from memory i paid £70 for it and sold some bits for £100 and got the seats as well, the rest of the minibus went to a banger boy so it was sort of recycled

[transitandy]

This is the story so far
I brought this van in september 2011 as a sort of make do van, it had a long mot and a bit of tax and only just over 60000 miles,
I think it was a pinto efi van to start with but for some reason the efi unit was taken out and had another engine and twin choke webber added to it,
So anyway i thought i would use it for work and and see how it goes as i had'nt had a petrol one for a while
As time went on i thought it may be an old van but judging by the underneath it was in pretty good condition considering its a 1993 van
Anyway it flew through the mot and thats when i thought this vans a keeper
Although i did start to look for a minibus as id recently brought a caravan, but then jono said about converting it to a day van
Brilliant i thought so first job was to get the exhaust sorted then a tow bar made and put on, the seats came next and thats basically how far i have got so far,
Onwards and upwards as they say
