Just joined this evening, Im Lance, bought my first minor last thursday, its a 68 (registered 69) Austin Minor Van, RRP904G!

Best way to describe it is condition 2, the guttering will require attention, but it will do for the moment, as she is being dry stored at our building until I pass my driving license!

As for age I turned 19 in August, I also own 4 'half cab' vintage buses! Must be mad!!!

All the best and look forward to contributing to the list!!

Hi Lance and welcome!
4 buses?? What happened, - don't tell me - you were trying to get one and they all turned up at once? ;-)

I used to be a member 13 years ago and then I sold my moggy (story on another thread)
However, I am looking at getting another one, and will be a member again.
I can't wait - all excited!! :lol:

Your not kidding :D arrived in the post this morning and I have spent half of the day reading it cover to cover 3 times instead of sleeping :P

Still I managed to get a couple of hours in but off to work soon again, must take it with me and read it again a few times on one of my many coffee breaks :lol:

Yep I'm a member.I'm still restoring the traveller but as I've retired early with osteo arthritis and because I'm "too young" (45) they won't replace my hip.The restoration is going steady but oh so slowly.

Hip replacement is pretty drastic. Are they going to 'coat it' instead?

The hip is too far gone to skim and they said if they replace my knee I will only wear it out ! The best advice the surgeon could give me was "take painkillers loose some wieght and use a walking stick". I think it's time to find another consultant !

I don't think anyone's laughing - I'd say that wasn't to bad for fans of an old car that wasn't built in your country...

It's only jealousy , percentage wise it's probably the same
We have around 590 members in The Netherlands, and 29 users at the moment that's 5%
