Far Flung J type vans.

Recently spotted on the Indian version of e-bay /exchange and mart, (mumbai.oix.in)
was this advert.
Shame the advert has expired as I wonder what the other views of the van were like and what if any details were given.
I will have to check this site from now on! Current exchange rate equals £8,824.00
 This is the first Indian van I've ever seen. Thanks to M.P. for the picture.


The recent J van advert on e-bay has disappeared , a cash sale maybe?
Turns out this is the old Colin Ellis van, RGK 535, a telephone utility van serial number U69944. It was sold on e-bay about 3 years ago in a similar state, they don't seem to have done any work on this since purchase.


Will it be restored as a GPO van, a normal van or another damn retro ice cream van?
