How do I know and can be that sure, I am that man, Still around, still in the Automotive Design and Concept Vehicle buisness including Aircraft and Large RV's , only not in the UK, resident in Texas since 1985.

Nice to see that the loverble Transit is still going strong would love to get a new English Transit over in the US but the stupid DMV regulations sa NO.

thanks i thought i was right on this but you know how it goes memories and details fade but i remember quick silver being connected with quicks in manchester (also remember the thames star wars van getting writtenoff but thats another story)
if its got tits or wheels its always gonna end in trouble !!!
anyone can restore a van but it takes a real man to chop it up !!!
