A few years ago these Transits were on every corner of the street. Now they are completely starved out over here...
Your Transit seems like it is in really really good condition! What are the next plans for it?

What are the next plans for it? Well the old 2.0 pinto has seen better days so we were toying with the idea of getting a slightly tuned one and dropping that in it and at the same time lowering it and fitting banded steels a bit like the british telecom marina van thats kicking about but i don't know if that would ruin it?

That's a nice looking Transit, lowered with banded wheels sound like a good plan

Nice. I had a brand new transit in 1992 on a J plate when I worked for Southern Water. Like people have said, they were once everywhere and have just disappeared.
It's your van, to do as you please with, but if you've any intentions of doing film work at some point in the future may I suggest you keep visible modifications to a minimum, or make them quickly and easily reversible?
Genuinely good to see a working commercial vehicle get into preservation before it's needed a total ground-up resto. Keep us up to date with it, please.

My worst worry about dying is my wife selling my stuff for what I told her it cost...

Don't modify it, that needs to stay just as it is...perfect and original

I love it the way it is, original and true to its roots, but at the end of the day it's your van and ultimately your choice. I don't think anyone would deny that it would look good dropped on some banded steelies

Great , you really might want to look at TV and Film work with that ! i sent pictures of it to every company i could find on the net when it was done and never heard anything back mate, i even told our bosses at British Gas but nobody seems interested I am unsure of the company name, but the person you need to speak to is known as Fred Transit on most forums. SHE, has all the contacts within the TV and film industry and will deffo get you work. She is an ex Glamour model that turned her love of transits into a business. I'll bet with a bit of digging, you could track her down. Her husband is known as Muttley online.
