Guest MK1gaz Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 That van looked like a Luis Vitton handbag driving down the road . At night it looked like Heathrow airport does from space !!!!!!!!
Guest MK1gaz Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 If i had it i would drive about in a fully chromed C3P0 outfit
Toby Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 a real work of art It's something else!!
oldbus Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 I´d forgotten how bad the 70´s were sometimes I´d say leave it as it is - as a warning to everyone that the good old days were sometimes not that good!
hotrodholty Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 as above. its a peice of motoring history that should be preserved
lotusless Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 god i remember that from chelsea whats the body like now? i would deffo put it back to standard coz it was crap back then + everyone laughed at it!! i cant believe it's turned up again
V8ian Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 yep unfortunatly I do remember it, TBH from what I remember the build quality was spot on, BUT whell what can I say about the taste, and I seem to think that it was not built in the 70s but about 10 years after the style went out of fashion,
Nick Mexi-cos Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 i Thought for a minute Big Rod had change the colour scheme on his cossie van just to blend in croydon lol
