Reminds me of a sign that was at a plant hire firm in Chichester (on the A27) - Beaver plant hire, it read 'Trim your bush with a Beaver cutter'. Was there for several years!

Mine was scruffy but had never been welded and was sound underneath.

The alternator/power steering pump setup is similar to the Isuzu 1.7TD, must be a Japanese thing.

I did think about getting a TD27 fitted or turbocharging the LD23 - I know someone who's ace at retrofitting turbos to old diesels.

Wolseley 6/110 has power steering pump built into the back of the dynamo, so its a quality car thing. Slight snag is that Halfords don't always have exchange units on the shelves.

1947 Brooks-Stevens Western Flyer RV

 

For some of us of a certain age, the first pic shouts.... 'I 'ate you Butler!'

That is fooking cool. As if a Master wasn't tall enough already lets jack it up another two foot.

Spent today delivering Musical Offspring and his weighty clobber back to Manchester in a Vauxhall Vivaro.

 

Verdict: SHIT.

Our Vauxhall Vivaro was stolen this morning. Now which city do you think a shonky Vauxhall was found in?

Damn. That's gotta be a sister van to the one I had. Identical conversion, with the antenna "chimney" and dipole plate.

I have also put this in the "cars you didn't know existed " thread, I thought it might qualify as a shite van too !

Fortunately it was tracked, turned up in the carpark of the lawn tennis club. They got into the office and took keys. They did take the Berlingo first but brought it back which tells you how nice the Berlingo is to drive.

 

We are cross but counting our blessings that it wasn't worse. Time to up the security with bars, spikes and mantraps etc
