    Evening Folks

    After an A100 in the UK, would also consider econolines maybe?

    My old man owns the A100 explorer, white with a gold stripe. After loads of vw T4 transporters i'm hankering after something old with character and a V8!

    Cheers

    Good luck with your search Steve.

    Your old man's is fantastic.

    I bought mine last month from Derby from a guy who had a few.

    I'm working my way round it at the moment recommissioning it. Hopefully it will be up and running soon.

    I originally wanted a Corvair Greenbrier but now that I have the A100 I'm quite glad. It's very easy to work on and spares are cheaper than for my other car - a 76 Imp.

    Cheers,

    Hugh

    Ah I know the one Hugh, was on ebay for a short while? A mate Rod bought one from the same guy i think a year ago.

    Good luck with the project, thanks

    Thats the one Steve.

    I drove up and down in a day to see it and bought it there and then. 800 miles in a day is probably nothing to our American friends but I decided if I wanted one I couldn't hang about!

    Really pleased with it other than the fact that the local kids think it's Rusty Rust Eze from Cars!

    Cheers,

    Hugh

    Morning Gents,

    Steve I love the explorer, I'm just trying to buy one now - If that comes off I may be persuaded to part with the travco camp wagon I have..but its only a 6 banger.
    I will reply to your message as soon as R&S lets me on it seems to have a glitch this morning!
    Hugh I'll head over this weekend and grab those bits-you dont need them quite yet!

    Hi Brian!

    It's coming on! I'm not that far away, but in the meantime I need the mirror to make my pretend driving in the garage seem more realistic! Laughing

    My neighbours think I've really lost it now.

    Cheers,

    Hugh

    Hey Brian

    I'm going to give Andy who I think you sold the lwb a108 to down in surrey a call, he mentioned he may be persuaded to sell up. I think he got it off you about a year back.

    I'd love some more details or pictures on the camp wagon, I was after a v8 but would certainly still be interested. If its easier my email address is
    bmxinbluemonkey @ hotmail.com


    Got any more vans tucked away!? Very Happy

    I'd love to hear/see some details on the Explorer!

    Thanks

    Bye for now
    Steve
