shussh...unaware at this point...this will require a delicate approach...look at all the fun parades and we'll always be the novelty award at BCF outings,,,,Hey maybe a few bucks from Guiness for panel advertising to help pay the upkeep....Yep it's found it's right home...but he'll be the first boy in amongst My British Babes and their Deutsch Sisters...

Both of those are so cool!! I am glad they wound up where they will get the right attention. Either of them would be a great asset as business vehicles. The attention-getting would be fantastic!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbsup.gif

Has anyone seen this one on ebay?...Cool!!!

But, BIBBER - he's British!! I also looked at it from time to time - &, had it been another color, I might've been in the bidding!

OK..it's morning and my sanity regained. I settled with the seller on his costs and backed away from the little cutie (the sucker doesn't have a ragtop) or the other version (my wife started calling her lawyer). It would've been fun but now will need to go to one of our other BCF members home....

I can always say I owned a MORRIS MINOR 100 VAN...

OK...insanity is back but more reasonable (I'll deal with the wife later). Don't know if the seller is a BCF member but THANKS!...He just cut me one H--LL of a deal so the BCF has either gained a new child or retained one!!!....I'm the proud new PAPA of a 1970 Morris Minor 100 VAN.....

Steve..I suspected so...but leave it to an LBC fanantic...I already have the idea of painting inside of window white allowing me to put vinyl adds on the window when it's ready to roll next spring...who knows may be a perfect candidate to become the POSTER CHILD for BCF advertising!!!

BASIL?????

Tony...sorry you know I had to do it....BRG!!!
For what I ended getting it for I can change it to any color...but the red is growing on me!!! If it's a fairly decent paint job I'll likely leave it as my #3 in RED.

Mike...Thanks but I don't think I could handle it....while it's the Jack it still reminds me of a Medical vehicle....I will put something in the window just not sure what...think I'll just get it here and go through through it mechanically first....when the wife see's it I may have to live in it!....
