He's a dealer

so price is probably not so bad from a dealer for a restored car, if its as good as described.

Its a shame it has later wings and not the original series II wings though- maybe a lever to drop the price a bit.

seems v v pricey for something which isn't even a van!

Hi all, apart from the side lights on the front wings, are the later type any different to the series II version.

The reason I am asking is I am restoring a series II and my dad bought some front wings (the later type) we have filled the side light holes and drilled holes for the hockey sticks. I think I have later rear wings too, but I am hoping we can still buy the early type?.... can we?

Thanks for your help.

Yes, but I suppose your paying for the additonal seating, comfort, lack of noise, better visibility etc

tsk. you have no poetry in your soul, Bill.

Nice to have an original interior in that car

Yes, nice car and nice interior. Pity the colour is wrong - Almond green was a sixties colour if I remember right and looks a bit bright on a Series 2. Should be Empire Green I think, a rather more subtle shade...
various specialists supply the early type wings - normally produced to order as its not a fast moving item I guess.

Juliet just wait until you try quoting poetry while driving along in your nice quiet van
