Old Transits never die they evolve into rail vans

Post by Preseli Chris » Tue Jun 18, 2024 5:58 pm

After reading Peters thread on motorising a 1/18th scale VW T1 .it reminded me of a youtube video which got me going . I do have a fondness for the old di 2.5 litre engine they just kept on going and going , as long as the timing belts were changed at the specified mileage . I haven't come across a 1/18th scale transit or i would add one to my loco roster. I love the onboard turntable . What health and safety :dontknow:
