I was very surprised when i saw this van, because of its colour. It passed me a thought some time ago what would amber gold look like on my mk1 when it will be restored. On Cortina 1600E s it looks cool, and i am still uncertain what would i colour mine. Except mine will not be modified just standard. Another problem with this metalic is that MaltaTransport autority would not pass it as a classic because it is not an original colour that transits came with, so hence i would not be entitled to pay half of the road licence as standard classic cars do :? :? 8) But i really love it this Transit :oops: :oops:

Some of the first custom vans I saw at the Custom Car show at Crystal palace, circa 1970
