	I have 3 to choose from. exibit 1- cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=017&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=270123364720&rd=1&rd=1 pros- 127.5/10 for obscurity cool wheels good motor swop cons- in not sure about the lift off roof colour may parts inc. body panels very hard to find. ugly grille and rear bumper looks a bit too much like a lada exibit 2- cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=019&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=290119861399&rd=1&rd=1 pros- ive had em before, know em inside out. unbeleiveably good condition n/a oil burner- got a mate who get copious amounts of free veg oil fresh test and plenty of tax. I get to make it 'my own' custom rather than reworking someone elses. cons- stock so needs smoothing and dropping exibit 3- cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=120123772564&rd=1&rd=1 pros- rare/obscure but shares a lot of parts with the b2000 smoothed out v6 motor cons- needs brake and motor work, autobox pipes not fitted- box could be shagged. colour change needed it an auto need quite a bit doing for MOT no tax or test all could be had for pretty much the same price with off-ebay deals (naughty naughty) so I throw it open to the board- give me your views! ;D

	C would be my choice, needs a colour change though. I would have thought an auto box would have suited a mini truck, slow and low

	gaaargh! the seller of option C has just mailed me saying he'll take much less for it than he was asking. it makes it an attractive option again as its 200 cheaper than B..... i have most if not all of the parts it needs in stock, ile only really need ot buy some brake service parts, so by the time ive paid for MOT, and 6months tax its the same price. ballsticks, I hate decisions like this.
