3001 - Customised triple axle mk2!!

[dilysi]

Hi bro,
i'm glad i took that pic with you sitting in the old girl, it says so much.
The wheel ony came off as she relaxed knowing she has found someone to love her once again.

[madmark]

oh i think madvanman is gona love her thats for shure! she will look great when its back on the road!

I have to say now that we have pictures in profile with sizeable reference points it is a bit of a beast.

I mean the tow truck not the new driver

She's the same as a regular LWB, it's the extra axle and the low roof that makes her bigger! I've been close up to her and would know. Still so glad to see her home!

[madvanman]

he he, as i was pushing her into my workshop some of the local kids walked past and said 'cor! is that a hummer?' - she does look big but its definatly just a LWB shell and in suprisingly good condition for its age (except for the windscreen surround and rear valance)

[FredTransit]

Why are you sitting here on the Forum and not out welding 3001? We want to see her out!

[madvanman]

9am - 5pm Bea is under the welder + electrical jobs + short breaks out of the sun 5pm - 9am 3001 will be attacked

Rover.

[FredTransit]

No social life for you now MVM, not even on line, we shall expect you to bring 3001 and your welder to billing with you..........

Oh alright, you can have that weekend off. Bet you are glad you don't work full time for me. Oh wait, looks like you do.

the second pic looks like a period 1980s pic..
nice twin wheeled van though...I used to have a dodge 50 series like that as well..

[madvanman]

i have just been told that if the exhaust manifolds are the original ones for the engine its a 3.1 .
after having sifted through all the junk and broken glass inside 3001 i managed to find a complete jigsaw puzzle:

now i have a template for the new perspex windows
