    Your very lucky finding a windowless Van, Finding Two is just showing off.


    I want that MK1 Van. The front bumper looks new.
    Fix the bonnet catch before it bends it outta shape in transit.

    The ute is an old Datsun. Can't remember which type, but my mates old man had one. L200 maybe?

    edit: Datsun 1500. That's what I was looking for.

    so its a datto ute? oh well if thats the case ill still get the rear end plenty of my rally mates will try buy it off me

    hehe worst thing is my mum sent my old man down the wrong road which lead to them coming accross the cars!

    I saw some more shots last night (that ill be putting up tomorrow) the mk1 is mint.. bar an old dent that the bog has fallen out of otherwise rust free!

    The mk2 has some rot on the drip rails and in the a pillars but both are certainly fixable.. dad still wants the mk1 so ill get the mk2... thinking of putting something modern and reliable between the rails probably zetec or sr20 or 4age at this stage

    so stay tuned more shots coming

    Whools,

    Yep, you get used to aproaching center medians etc when turning at funny angles, all so you can see out the passenger side window.

    At least an esky panel van is easier than piloting the HX Sandman.

    You do realise, you can only drive them in the LH lane and they come with rear-end damage as standard. From the look of these 2, they have never seen city traffic, before.
    Nice find.



    That why I've always wanted a window less one, impossible to find without rear damage. again great find MATTYJ!

    thanks for all the well wishes guys! heres a heap more pics we took.. should hopefully be going up in a month to get them back from my uncle who is storing them for us.. the rust on the side of the mk1 is literally the only rust in the car at all.. the bklue mk2 has rust along the a pillars and drip rails (can kinda see), but the engine bay is amazing!!

    enjoy :)...so cant wait to get them!! 4agze 4 linked mk2 van is going to be the way i think :)

    Both excellent vans. But that mk2 looks awesome. I reckon you should leave that graphic on the side. It looks great!

    Hey! BabyBlue has a sister I never knew about!

    I hope that you got that headless dog thrown in with the purchase (as seen in front end photo of the MK 2).
