Just a reminder, Ancaster (Hamilton Ont) Auto Jumble, Flea Market, April, Sunday the 23rd, one day parts show

Weather is usually iffy but plan on coming

If the weather is somehow good, we can expect 200 LBC 'S to do a drive in, no judging just sp)??

The best vendors are inside the hall but we the (unwashed) are left outside in the elements selling bargains

Moke, no......this one is for the next decade, at least

I always thought old cars were expensive......then I got an ex-wife Yell

Glad to see you are doing well Kevin

Your van project ended up in Ontario with Tamer,I just got his title problems sorted out for him

Just curious, is your current Moke for sale?

Any chance you can make Ancaster this year on April 23 2017 ?

I should hope so.....the engines and transmissions were worth more than I sold them for.

I should have kept the Carbio.....oh well.

I was not in a good place back then.

Bitter, I mean better now.

Good to hear you are not Mokeless anymore Kevin.
Post up some pictures.

Hi All,

After the big sell off of my Minis and Mokes after the f#%king divorce, resulting in only a Van shell and my Rally Mini remaining, things are looking up.

Van shell was sold......big loss, but now gone.

Rally Mini is as good as ever......no winters and looking good after 20 years.....the years pass quick.

The Moke, a modified Aussie 13" wheeler, inherited all the running gear meant for the Van project:

1360 Swiftune
JKD 5sp SC/CR 3.4 final
LED lamps all round - Defender kit
Seats are 2004 Disco rear jump seats
Black Minilites 13 x 5

Aggressive tread cross country/road tyres - almost as aggressive as the ex-wife 
Cooper S front....Superminifins rear
Adjustable dampers
PIAA 3.5" flood & driving aux lamps
PIAA reverse aux lamps
Converted to LHD

All in a Bright Yellow

And this has been my Moke up-date.

Oh yeah, also added a very clean 1993 Land Rover Defender and 2004 Land Rover Discovery (with a re-built engine that eliminates all the usual Disco engine issues).

I always thought old cars were expensive......then I got an ex-wife Yell
