Actually I think I can see a rear window so it's not a pick up, nice numberplate too.

 

Mk1 Forum suggest it is a 63/64 Minivan with rear side window conversion.

PM'd  - c'mon guys, anything but the scrap heap!!

[pretzil]

Is that a white v w beetle next to it? Seriously before they go for scrap which is roughly what nowadays £120? You should take picks and see of anyone wants them and ask bit.more, I'd happily have room to buy a couple like everyone else on here just to save them from the scrap! X

Has the OP got any more info yet?

[Black.Ghost]

Every car in there needs to be saved from scrap unless they are so bad it's not worth saving. That was someone's lifetime collection. It may be a shame to break the collection up but it's much better than scrapping them all. I don't really have too much space but believe me I will try if I get a chance for a nice mk1 or a van!

Keep us posted.

I spoke to my uncle last night.  The Deven is owned by a local.  It has never had its tax lapsed 

[zeemax89]

So the Mk1 apparently is a saloon, someone has just changed the grill.  I have got dibs on that. but hetre are some other finds

 

there are a lot of siera's there, that were going to be scrapped.  I did mention they are very sort after for Kit cars, so that might be on hold.  Some very old daimlers wrapped in tarps, Jags, a few metros, and lots of crappy rovers from the 90s
