Cheap but no. I have far too many projects to finish myself.

Maybe Gingernutz might do it for not a lot.

I think he's up the other end of the country isn't he? This one was in Bristol, it's probably terminal anyway

I didn't even open it so I couldn't even consider it! Safer that way.

I might have to bid on this if it stays cheap.

At least it won't go rusty. He even made an allegro steering wheel out of wood.

Is it because the back looks like a hearse?

[DodgeRover]

That's looks very daft! Is it registered correctly Ive got a feeling I read a thread on retro rides about the 6 wheel Hustlers and there was some sort of issue with them and logbooks

[panhard65]

This one has loads of history and is made of wood by John Brazier he was an ex-Rolls Royce engineer who during the 1960s helped to work on Concorde. He later became a woodwork and metal work teacher at Brislington Comprehensive for many years. This Hustler was lovingly engineered and built over three summers in the mid-1980s and went on to serve as the main family vehicle for over thirteen years. Just checked on DVLA and it is registered as a Hustler 3 axle rigid

[DodgeRover]

The first Hustler hearse to be available for mini fans who don't fancy their last ride dangling out of a pickup or van? Sounds like an excellent* business opportunity.

More seriously it'll either make strong money or be cheap, I like it but luckily I won't be bidding against you.

[panhard65]

I like the history of it more than anything.

[SiC]

And you say I bid on some right shit

Loads of ex-concorde (and TSR2) engineers around Bristol. They're getting on a bit now though. I used to chat to them at the local RC model flying club when I was big into it. All of them had some interesting stories to tell.
