...for the benefit of those who have trouble seeing it...

(man it hurts)

And I'd say it's just a tiny bit beyond fixable...

Maybe if you like sitting in oatmeal.

At least it looks like all of the custom parts are fully intact and reusable.

According to the posting on Jammaplus.co.uk he stored it in his dad's shed to restore it " one time". Then rats decided it would be a nice home, so his dad moved it outside with some sort of cover over it (not sure what kind, he used a word I don't understand). Then his dad got ill, and he kinda "forgot"  about it.....anyway......it's done.

I think capital punishment should be reconsidered for this.....

It's very easy to say things when you haven't been through something, I've looked after my dad for the past two years and know what stress someone being ill can do to someone and how side tracked it makes you and believe me something like this is the last thing on your mind when someone is close to death, yes its a great shame that this cab is no more but it was forgoten for a good reason and not because he couldn't be bothered.

I also think that theres been a lot left out of the story for good reasons about his dads illness.
 
There are people who want hanging by there balls from a lamp post for what they do to cabs but i think this time the guy has paid twice, his dad being ill and losing an sw.

Hey.....

You think I was serious ?


I know about loved one's with health problems more than you might think.
Guess f.i. why my son is in so many pictures. He was born with three heart defects. We've been there and seen it. Maybe not cancer, but we know what this does to people. And indeed, silly old cabs are way less important than human beings.

I don't think anyone was suggesting he took better care of his SW than his Dad ........ I think  >:D
