:lol: Well Ive just doubled my collection of Transit pick up's with this old girl :lol:
New in 94 to the Gas board she worked for them for 3 years then had a big Luton body fitted and painted white then spent the next 8 years delivering loft insulation, She's got 40k on clock but I would assume thats 140k,She's got one of the sweetest sounding DI's Ive heard in along time She worked on this job until last year When a driver tried to remove the top of the Luton under something a bit low ( :lol: :lol: cue comment from FRED :lol: :wink: )

Bought by a local garage they removed the luton and fitted the tipper she's had new wings and arches fitted and obviously painted blue, drives lovely
Image

Only thing lettting her down is the interior got the standard Tranny seat (ripped ) and the dash has been knocked about a bit, But hopefully will be able to tidy it up some time.

I was actually going to ask what happened to the Luton body before I got to that bit!! :lol: Very tidy tipper though, the interior is a minor proble, plenty of bits like dash and seats around.
