These cute vans & estates have been on my radar for a while, today I had a look around one from the 60s that might be up for sale soon 
It's on the original engine (1057cc ?) and sounds like it's in well sorted "daily use" condition.
Any words of wisdom from the collective before I do something daft (dafter than usual?)
* My only experience of older Vauxhalls was a Viva HC many years ago. Slow, low-power, but it just refused to die. My type of car
Questions have been asked in the past about engine swaps forum.retro-rides.org/thread/192335/viva-ha-engine-swaps
Wheels? (4x100 13s - same as later Vauxhalls ?)
Spares & weak points?
Mick Wilkes with his HA Bluebell was one of the stars from RRG for me
Same body, badged as a Bedford Beagle
Not an estate/van, but it's SO cute
