Today I shoved it out and took some better pics, and also dismantled some of it...

Back of the sill where it needs welded

Spare wheel well bit that also needs welded

Rear Valence could do with some straightening

And need this bit sorted

Engine looks nice inside, still oil in the head

Removed some bits, carb and radiator

Mainly solid here

Sorry about all the pics, plans are just to rip the engine out and start again.

It's a build thread don't apologise for pics, they're better that way!! Looks like you got a project on your hands there, keep us updated

Not to sound like a idiot but that's bad in fairness I'd cut the van panels and out and shove them onto a half decent bready job done!

Well, if you did that you'd only have a bread van with Van panels...

This is a genuine Van, which is quite rare these days. Plus there's probably less welding to be done here than would be needed to install these properly into a breadvan.

Also I thought with only 1 previous keeper, and given the rareness this would be a nice wee save? Plus I have the option of a G40 engine for it, so that would make it a nice wee van.

Although progress is slow at the moment I'm sure I'll get there one day.

Dam.. that's a bit of work... but will be grand once done!

One to save for sure!! not too much work really, yeah needs a fair bit of tidying up but well worth the effort for something so rare nice find hope you enjoy the resto :)

Well after putting it on ebay, I have done a deal on G40 engine and gearbox which may see me keeping the Van. But I'm going to let it run its course on ebay and see what happens.
