Went down south and bought this the other day, pretty good nick and turned 30,000 on the drive home. Steering box was dangerous so have ordered a rebuilt one up to sort it.

1978 mk2 transit LWB 3.5 Tonne. (payload of 1850kg!)
York diesel engine and 5 speed box
30,000 miles

Decent old work horse, had a few SWB mk2's but always wanted a twin wheel LWB.

Might give it a nice paint job over the winter and colour change and possibly a Di turbo conversion. Will be a good truck for towing my cartina to shows/sprints





Cheers,auld

 

Fair play for finding one in such good nick mate

I love that.Its really cool.

 

Would love a mk2 lwb

I like that a lot. I see one not so long ago with a mk1 escort trailing behind. Both in the same colour. look smart!

What a lovely old thing!

Retro from top to bottom, will look ace towing a Cortina behind.

 

Yeah liking that, what about the same colour as the Tina?

Well its sold!! Had to to fund the cossie purchase as there was no way I was selling the Cortina

Cheers,auld

or has it had a re-spray

 

Totally understandable but still...

 

Shame because that vans level of coolness was off the scale!
