With the job i do of driving around the country,just now and again you have to arrange the job around the hobby...so i'm now off to see a 44.
No pics but will try and get some posted.
The car is the rough looking orange 44 in March,Cambridgeshire which was on Gumtree..update when i can.

Put the kettle on..more tea needed.
Can I buy another Daf yet..?..

Well it's been viewed..but sorry no pics

Not 1 panel is without a dent or rust in it,a spare worn belt in the boot and an early badged spare bonnet which is solid
All complete but no chance of starting it..but 2 nice front seats and front panel..engine might be ok as ran when put into storage..about 15 years ago

Rolls freely which is a result.Rotten in all the normal places

So did i buy it...of course i did...but it's a breaker i'm afraid

With every dark cloud there is a silver lining..turns out there is another Daf available..all i know it's sat in brambles where this 1 came from,not expecting much left but will take a dustpan and brush when i get to view it
Also a spare engine has turned up but that's in Durham so collecting it will take some planning

Pics of rotten 44 when it's back at the barn..now to sort recovery
