In the current edition of Classic van and pick up there is a brief write up of the J vans history, I think a couple of typo's have crept in but here it is in full so have a read and then go out and buy a current edition.
So Seasons Greetings, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
The joint writers of this blog are both away over the Christmas period, normal or abnormal service will be resumed in early January.
