[trnsitvanman]

I am planning a charity endurence run with a difference.and it will soon happen this summer.2006

It involves visiting all 50 US state capital buildings in the USA for Charity in a Ford Transit 100 T260 diesel powered.in approx 13 weeks or less.
I have chosen Cancer Research UK as the charity to benefit for lots of good reasons and there are many.

Check out my Web site at insidemusic.v21hosting.co.uk Its a bit messy but being updated as thing progress forward to the launch date soon(date to be confermed. for more infomation,all will be reveled.

I am looking for major sponsors and small sponsors(NATIONAL COVERAGE IN THE UK.

I know there are many ford transit owners out there so please contact me asap.
This is no joke and deadly serious and I know this could be good for all you white van mans out there in the United Kingdom and Europe.
this would be my way of puting the humble workhorse on the World Map for good.

PLEASE HELP .MAKE IT HAPPEN TELL EVERYONE,EVERYWHERE.

Welcome to the forum, that's an interesting concept, and a good cause. I wish you would have picked a classic though. Have you tried Peter Lee at the Transit Van Club? There is a link on this Forum. He has a lot of contacts at Ford.

Also can you fit a cruze control to the T260 / T280 / T300 range?
