'airbrush paintwork to sides'

Picture 7 of 24

To be fair, that Henry Hoover is a very good likeness.

Looking on the bright side, it's devalued the car so the next buyer gets a bargain, and they can then increase the car's value by painting it matte black with a yard brush

Seems odd, 1964, registered in 79 on an M reg?

It's possibly a 1974 and imported into the UK in 1979.

Yeah I figured but the logbook says declared manufactured 1964

Not much '64 bug there. Big give away is the four bolt wheels which first appeared in 1968. The doors look mid 1970s by the chrome handles on the inside. Front seats are usual early 1970s, as is steering wheel and black switch gear on the dash. It does have an internal fuel filler and the speedo and fuel gauge are '64ish. I think that bug was built by Heinz (57 Varieties), even the engine has a mix of parts from various years..

Ladies and gentlemen, I think I have now seen it all...

So here we have a 2015 Vauxhall "Mdjgdhajs" (?) 

The van is complete, working perfectly and [has a] good engine 

I wonder what van it is though...

Ah, so it's a Vivaro. Ok. But what's going on in those photos?

Erm, right, ok then

Photos taken at the scene of an RTC, most likely sans insurance... 

🤦😂😂

Yeah, it’s 10k and it’s obviously fucked, but wouldn’t it be worth it to see the staff at the tip quivering with rage when you pulled up and started unloading? “What mate? It’s not a van…”

Ok, it obviously wouldn’t be worth it, but it’s a nice idea.

Local landmark has a for sale sign in the window:

Obviously I'm not suggesting anyone actually buys it, its fucked, but I'll miss it.

Yeah, that’s a real bitzer.  Fuel tank is pre-68 and there’s no fuel flap on the front quarter panel but the rear valance is definitely a later car despite its earlier engine lid.

Looks mostly early ‘70s but backdated in places as was the fashion in the late ‘80s.

I’ve owned a lot of aircooled VWs over the years and seen hundreds close up.  They built them well in Wolfsburg but usually very badly in a bloke’s shed.
