Here we have a mk1 astra van that I picked up yesterday from a barn where it had been sitting for nearly 20years. It's fitted with a diesel engine that runs fine, it also has the fold down rear seats fitted. I've had a quick look round it and the floors look mint, think it could do with outer sills and maybe rear valance and a wheel arch tho. Any question text or ring scott 07989805388    |

Would it have originally been diesel? Say that purely because of the 1300S badge on the back, unless that was stuck on!!

That is doolally...!!! I think that is screaming out for a sleeper style touch of TLC...
Any chance of some interior pictures please?
I think the boot has come off of a standard Astra Estate hence the 1300S badging?!
This is a super rare bargain for someone out there...

This will make an insane vehicle in the right hands, totally insane...!!!
Keep it stock outside save for a bit of banding on the existing steels then go for gold under the bonnet! What a thought...

I'm worryingly seriously considering this as I'm looking for a new van!

First job that needs done is the bulkhead padding removed to make sure there is a bulkhead there! I restored à mint one of thèse and the only place that was rotted was the lower bulkhead.
It's also the reason that mk1 gtes are so rare.
