Van Wagon Away!

Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2009 in Cars, Projects

So I had an old van hanging around in the drive for a while, and what was going to be a project quickly turned into something that would require more funds and time than I was willing to sink into it.

I had an acquaintance on the internet, and he was in need of a van, so I said he could have it, so long as he got it going himself.

$10 litres and petrol and a new battery and the 1988 VanWagon burst into life and DROVE itself away, considering it was TOWED to my house I consider this venture a success, and have decided never to do the “Project Car” thing again until I have a better house/garage and I have a budget to work with :D

Had a lot of good memories in that van, my Grandfather purchased it brand new 1 owner it’s whole life, loads of family road trips and I’ve used it moving house and it even kept me employed for a few months, I’m sad to see it leave but I know it will see a lot more of the world this way instead of sitting in my drive rusting :D

Enjoy Your New (Old) Van Tim!
