Hi Ray, is your syncro the red one I have seen parked on King Harry Lane for Verulamium Park? Think it was a high top.

I grew up in Redbourn, saw a syncro in the above location there in the summer or spring.

Yes that is me, we take the old poodle in there for walks. Live in park street village.

Hehe Ray, walk through the park from end to end daily to work and back now... rather nice, although the quantities of duck dung are getting high on those footpaths. Lovely early in the morning, a bit spooky on the way home now the clocks have gone back...

Are you parking at Waitrose or museum, then walking into town.? I love Snorbains. :lol: ( I do, my oldest son learnt to ride his bike on the park) I like a pint of Hoegarden in the Ring o bells in St Michaels after a walk in the park.

Hi Ray,
Give me a call or send me a pm when you are coming. I will fit it to your van when you come past. Will take about an hour.

Very neat looking.

Are you still getting more made?

How much are they?

Where did you get those bumpers?

:D

Hi Karl,
I have produced this one at home, which is very time consuming. I will continue to produce them until I can find a reliable and competent Engineering company to reproduce them. The side hinges are braced internally to the rear hatch seal panel and they are powder coated. The cost is £350. The rear bumper is one I made and I share it between my 2 vans!!!!!

Elvis,
I have made a couple of others, but they were in 50 tube I think.
