hello there,
dont know if youve found a mk2 transit recovery truck yet ?
i have a mk2 recovery truck beavertail 1980v 222619 miles 2.5diesel & 5speed-manual the engine &gearbox is from a
later mk3 transit excellent runners spot on starts 1st time every try without fail but i dont know when the engine-gearbox
was changed and dont know the milage when engine-gearbox was changed either ,ive owned it about 6-7months now
it needs attention to chassis mainly at front the crossmembers,steps,door-sills(ns-os),the rear part of chassis is quite
good but still needs a little attention and also needs attention to--steering the ns/os-trackrod-ends/arms-lowerball joints-
or kingpins,front-ns-leafspring needs replacing,the cab is quite good body panels good but slight rust holes in roof-edge
and a few only 5 very tinny rust holes around windscreen water gets in lays on floor,the floor of cab has had in past some
very extensive welding done plates welded in places,all work on chassis is marked with yellow crayon easy to see where
the brake-pedal is a little spongy but still stop the truck could also do with a paint-respray too ,
it needs repairs doing to it im guessing all work needed will probably cost about £1000-00.without respray!
these trucks are very rare and ive just seen 2 selling for £2500-/£3500- no joking around seriously no joke !!
so i want for my truck considering the amount of work involved for repairs
i will take £700-00. strickly no offers it drives but has fair amount of play in steering when turning corners etc
but is drivable so £700-00. NO OFFERS! would you be interested ?

my truck and wanted to drive it home i couldnt say if it would be ok the distance i drove it home locally from a village
near to me about 15miles away it was ok so it may be ok to drive it a distance ,but has the play in steering
