73 MK1

Postby Di Jack Regan » Fri Apr 19, 2013 11:06 pm

With 2.5 Di and 5 speed box....................... It has an unusual front bench seat, the backrest folds backwards, flat, to form a double bed. As you can see the pic of the seat that it has a square pad that fits in the gap where the handbrake is.

was it already tax exempt or has it recently become so? Lovely van. Really like the period camper seat.

Hi old yellar, yes she starts up nice now :-) just got back from a 700 mile round trip to France and she ran really nice. Only had some vibration under the cab floor so will take the prop off and check it for balance.
