A J van comes out of hiding after 20+ years storage.

Converted to a SU carburettor, from the different manifold, air cleaner, breather pipe and engine lifting hooks, one would think its had an up grade at some time.

Needs a fair amount of body work, far worse examples have been saved.

We are told it attended a couple of J type rallies in the mid 1980's then disappeared, thought to have been scrapped, its nice to know its been hiding all this time.

Maybe the driver should cut down on his intake of baked beans?
