The one at Mini King is for a disabled access conversion if I remember correctly, with a clubby front.

Nice find.

I will be the silly person to ask the question. "WHY?"
I think that at one stage that was a perfectly good minivan.

Looking at the integral grille and sliding windows it'd be very nearly worth buying at that price and taking the high roof off ....

did they have those integral grills at that late a stage? I thought only the early pov pack UK or South African cars had these?

I think the integral grilles carried through on commercials (pickups and vans) in the UK unless you ordered otherwise . Any UK'ers able to help out ?

A lot of work has gone into this. The fuel tank has been moved, loading ramp, I assume some strengthening I wouldn't mind owing it.

UK built Vans (and Pick-Ups) right to the end of production originally had the pressed grille front panel.

With regard to the disabled access Van, quite a lot were built. They tend to have a number of unusual features such as the early (as in 1959) style seat mounting brackets and seat frames.
