DoctorRetro 10046 Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 Just made it home. Kept the heater on all the way through Croydon, just in case - Because K Series. It's a bit of a shit tip inside, will require many hours of cleaning / fumigating. Some nice retro touches, pictures to follow... andy18s, Dan302, Angrydicky and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites

scdan4 4071 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 There’s a lot to like there. Like a late 90s time capsule. Fag lighter, cassettes, choke. Dont like those holes much though, be careful opening the tailgate if it’s windy! EssDeeWon 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SiC 21230 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 These are so much more appealing with a carb on. Looks like it'll need a tickle with a welder soon. What is it like underneath? Can I put first dibs in when you come around to sell please? 😀 Link to post Share on other sites
