Found on ebay

We had been admiring these living vans at a country fair in Sussex and then started actively seeking one out, but not appreciated how sought after they are.

The first one on ebay I noticed sold before we'd had a chance to look at it, and then we went to the Cheffins vintage sale to bid on a beautiful Fowler van - but I couldn't get my hand in the air as it sold for so much.

And then this poor thing appeared on ebay

The side left exposed hadn't suffered too much but the side in the hedge was rotten all the way through.

The majority of the chassis had stayed dry


 What I presume are artillery wheels have replaced the original cast wheels
 And the interior and exterior had been painted and played with to hide the vans original purpose
