Postby oldskooler » Mon Jan 12, 2009 7:45 pm

took this home yesterday as it was due to go to the crusher some day this week. its a facelift lwb custom, pinto powered. still some usefull bits in it. does anyone know does this have the taller diff ratio as the vin plate is gone. it dont look much but i just cant stand seeing this stuff goin to the crusher. its not all bad as the same guy has a mk2 cab dry stored in a shed for the last 15 yrs and it looks like he ill sell. :D

That would be a common irish mk2 field transit we got here. There's a few like that in fields around where i live. Been meaning to call in to reap some parts from them, not that there is much left of them.

Hiya,

are you going to sell bits off it if you don't need them? Don't suppose it's still got the boot handle / lock on it has it?

Thanks,
Tom.
