Due to personal reasons I am getting out of classic cars for the foreseeable future...
I would like to thank everyone for their support with my projects over the years, Gina and Tilly will be on ebay once they have been
cleaned and photographed.. If anyone would like any details on either car then feel free to drop me a PM as obviously I would rather
they stayed within club members than go out into the big wide world on their own..
but what will be will be

What sort of van and what do you mean by "more modern". That to me still sounds like "old tat", just not as old as what you currently have.
Big van or little van?

Mac, I have 3 great danes.... I cant take them anywhere using the current fleet, I can fit a single dane in Gina, maybe two at a real push.. and as for Tilly (well she holds Widget well but thats the back filled ! ! ! )was looking at something pug 405-406 sized as know they fit mutts in really well, and roof height is ok for danes too.

I know the size of your dugs! I was asking big van or little van? This would be even better for the Danes! Take the daddy of car-derived vans and add some more!  |

1300 slushbox tho  There was another on Gumtree a couple of months ago asking 650 quid. I wonder how easy it is to drop a dizzler engine in. The dogs would have a great view of the world going by in one of those Popemobiles. Just give the Metro conversion a wide berth lol!  1985 Austin Metro (Chairman?) for sale for £100..... by Austin7nut, on Flickr Anyway, seriously, would a Citroen appeal as opposed to a Pug, or would you rather avoid the green blood blues? |
