Thought that it would be cool to have a thread like the last 2 years?
I call this one 'Hmm, What next?'

yes, the look of confoundment on the two guys says it all. Many a times I've put my hand to my head and thought, "what the hell did I get myself into?" Nice photo! |

Because of the lack of a trans, it gradually sank on the trailer until it was camber-tastic, so the easiest option was to jack it up in the middle, remove the reductions, lower it on to box section, then roll the trailer away from under it! All very organised and planned of course! The roof was dent free by the time it was on 4 wheels though! (Almost finished then!) _________________ To catch a fish, you must first think like a fish.... |

I have heard of and have been lucky enough to have owned a couple of the unlikely survivors from that side of the world, and im absolutely fingers crossed that it is still there (11222).
Here is a pictures while may be not 2009 (07) - related to your picture -two of the closest matching number vans to 11222 and one of the earliest 50's all in one place at the same time, one of my personal favourites pictures ever, all credit to Barndoor 51. I dont think it really gets much better than this ...
