Quite true, but 2k, is rather strong considering the resto cost. RHD, twin diffs - Standard for UK or do you know something else?

Nope .... Im looking at breaker value plus a bit of rarity value. I reckon my panel van will cost about €4000 just to get the body ready for assembly so I reckon £2000 would be a good start especially if it had twin diff locks. When you sit down and think about the costs it can get a little scary.
And that's why CJ liked his disc cutter as opposed to putting them back on the road.

it would probably work out cheaper for you if you just gave me the van..

Yeah I suppose you are right ...... but then I wouldn't have the rarest of all Syncros ..... there may be only 14 16" Westys but there is only one last one!
