Winnie!

Postby Muttley » Sun Jul 07, 2013 9:57 pm

Here is Winnie, 1980 Dormobile, with wheelchair taillift. To be converted to a mobile workshop for me and Fred's fleets :D She has 3800 genuine miles and NO rust to speak of (bubbles on the tops of the wings is all) having been rustproofed from new. Been dry stored since 2000 and was WELL dusty :lol:

I have polished the bottom of the front but cant reach the top yet, she is now running well and going for MOT asap :D

Can't take any credit for finding this one, all down to Fred :D She did a 100 mile round trip today and apart from a dodgy starter connection and running a bit weak all was good :D
