D Spares & Tyres Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Today I broke my 'no more project' new years resolution and took a little jaunt up the M1. I took this, I don't own a prat navUpon reaching my destination I found two autoshiters and one chap who is so autoshite he doesn't know itThis posh Allegro was loaded onto my trailerA fairly uneventful journey with very little of interest on the way other than this old 240 I followed for milesNot a good photo but I tried. This truck was owned by Allegro Transport Ltd! Had a good day. Nice to meet you both and a big thanks to Jim for all your efforts in helping everyone with these cars and parts. Max is a decent chap too, recommended seller! Now I need another Allegro for spares. This sounds familiar...

Squire_Dawson Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Looks like an early VP, it will be a worthwhile project. I have 3 old stock doors for these, can check if it's the dented side if needed. D Spares & Tyres, djimbob, Vince70 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Spares & Tyres Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 Nice one. Allegro looks pretty decent really too.Yes it seems quite solid. The paint isn't very good though. Picture a fat girls arse that is covered in stretch marks and has been slapped repeatedly. That is what the paint finish looks like!

D Spares & Tyres Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 Hmm I might know where the is a complete but bent allegro near Peterborough...I like the sound of that! This one has a knackered autobox. I'm after a running one that I can just swap the engine and box over. Doesn't matter what spec it is, am happy to convert to manual if needed.

MarvinsMom Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 most vanden plas 1500 (or 1750's for that matter) got these little tables in the back of the seats, these been the plah in vanden plas. BUT, the cars made in the first year, or so, of the vanden plas 1500 didn't have the tables, instead they had a map pocket in the back of each front seat instead, Sudsprint and D Spares & Tyres 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeEP Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 VdP based on series 1 Allegro (pre October 1975) = pockets VdP based on series 2 (and series 3) Allegro (post October 1975) = tables I donated all my spare doors to the owner's club last year, but I should be able to get one back at little/no cost it you get stuck.
