There's a couple of us up here in kent (Econolineman) 1988 Ford Econoline E150 and me (1979 Dodge B200)who get down to cornwall normally for RUN TO THE SUN, so if it's on next year we may see you at the show and shine if you go, sure you get a trophy!
I am frantically trying to get mine done as putting new trans in. We both have CB's in so we'll listen out for you. You also have the west coast cruisers custom club that meet on the A30 at the macdonalds they may be worth a shout if you looking for a club. Regards Mark

Would like to have a look over the van its looks great and sounds nice too - checked out your vid! Dayvans are fun on the small cornish roads!
Also been doing RTTS since 88 but had a bit of a break as felt the chavs took over it a bit in the hot hatches and it lost its way, but we did the final few but much preferred it at Tregunnel in the center of the towm.There was a guy who used to go regularly in a blue dodge van and he wasa long time regular but didn't see him at the last few.
You have to undergo a test for UK plates I believe have you booked it in yet?
Regards

Was it hard to register her over there? I thought there was some sort of law that made it a real bitch to keep old cars on the road in Europe. | | |
