I wouldn't hang a value on what that chancer wants for stuff - just auction gear with £2-5K added on and often the same spiel lifted from the auctioneer's catalogue....

I was having a rant, in the supermarket car park a few hours ago, about the freaks, tattoed munters and spotty mongtards clogging up the place with huge big-cab pickups. Would I make the world a better place by doing my shopping with this?

Good idea.
Would this be better for the students?

Interesting how the lower woodwork is clad in, presumably, aluminium panels. Quite modern for the time.

Wood and aluminium was easier to obtain for motor vehicle bodies than steel at the time.

Presuming left over aluminium from aircraft production? I'm thinking of the way the woodwork is entirely enclosed rather than the ally panels being inset into the frame work as with the Morris wagons of the early 50s.
