    I’ve been on here a few years and well overdue this post to say hello. Our van is a 1978 from Australia which we bought back in 2006. Named Stan the Van we’ve shared many adventures in the uk and hope to venture to France this year. We’re based in Northants. If I’m able to load some photos you’ll see the reason for tlb name

    Thanks for the welcomes. The square is a 1968 from the US. Bought as a project some years ago without engine & gearbox, a rats nest of wiring but good ish bodywork. Now running a 1641 with a lucky gearbox find on-line. Haven’t had time and patience to sort wiring but it’s on the list. Known as the money pit by Mrs S
