Hope you have a grate (or do I mean great) time.

Do not overdo it though. Come back tickety boo.

A Scammell would be just the thing to carry the mobility scooter.

(Full of jealousy)

Here we have the gorden bennett rally, which first occured when the law
forced a man with a red flag to walk in front of cars in Great Britain.

Been driven down a important road recently, a car passed us and my
driver said, `That car has a steering handle, no wheel.'

A lot of those old models I drove in real life for various companies,
and some of the cars and bikes too.

It's like the folk museum at Rickmansworth recently visited. Nearly all
the exhibits I had used or seen used in my time.

But they didn't have a crystal set!

Duzz make ya feel a bit ancient!

Lovely photos. But I was expecting to see one of your revamped trailer.

That's a great looking van - I thought you were fixing up
an old ambulance ... ? < I'm out of the loop >
If you put a lot of miles on the trailer be sure to keep
the wheel bearings serviced - sometimes they are not
the best quality on the small units.
What is the make/model/engine/tranny on the van ?
I'm curious if anything similar is available in Canada.

And a new roof, but it'll se me out for a couple of years. I'm thinking
of tacking a tarp over it.

Thanks. Apparently, if I want to buy a Fiat in Canada
my choices are limited to :
1. 2021 500 X
2. ... nope
.... That's it, that's all .. 1 choice.
Nation-wide used Fiats - 3 that aren't
500s or Spyders .. no vans.

the driving licence, due to its weight.

My son and d-i-l went up to Tofino last weekend and so did an awful
lot of others in restored 60s, 70s and 80s camper vans. I don't know
whether they stumbled upon a vintage rally or perhaps it's the latest
craze to have one of them.

Now all you need is a 60fps movie camera and an X^* to drive the van
very slowly and with the mobility scooter you could repeat the classic
police chase trope where the fugitive drives into the back of the
moving van and pulls the doors closed behind them.
