Adding my first car.......Bedford HA van.
Based on the Viva car.
Bought for peanuts from insurance company after storage for months due to delays. My dad made an offer to the assessor. Dent in roof pushed ou, new widscreen, second hand bonnet and front wing, total respray with Permabel paint sample from a rep. Seats put in back. On the road for £105. Sold after 3 years with 100k miles for £80.
Replaced by a 1750 Maxi.
So.......I started off with some real classy cars!
When in my teens I worked with my dad in the holidays. Coachbuilder. I got to move many varied and awesome cars round the workshops/yard. Also repairs etc. I remember a Citroen Athena, Jenson, Chevrolet Impala( massive thing), Rolls Royce, Bristols.....
