Yup. Been done.

Great to have a novelty vehicle but the Lemanbulance? Cheating!

I'd feel similarly gutted if someone copied The General M3!

So you were the orginal then? Seen it done a couple of times, Ford Cortinas used to be a prime candidate back in the day. rolleyeswink

The original intention was to do the A team but whilst perusing the classified I came across the Ambulance and it was to good a chance to pass up on.

This is the van in its raw state we have many months to decide what is going to happen.

Personally I think the Lemanbulance boys should be flattered, they looked like they were having a lot of fun last year.

As for Gulf colours, I've even got the T shirt. wink

Hiya, i'm the other half to the original Lemanbulance creation, good luck with the project and we'll look forward to seeing you down there in 09. thumbup



Will be interesting to see the updates but I'm sure there's a trademark on the "Lemanbulance" wording wink


Edited to say, did you sort out insurance ok in the end ?

I've sorted temporary cover to get it back and for a couple of months. Will need to sort out a multi driver policy for nearer the time.

I'm glad Lemanbulance is copyrighted wink.

We have not decided on the finish look yet, we intend to fit a good sound system, a TV, put my old Granada seats in, fit a fridge (essential), fix the leak in the roof, maybe a re-paint and lots of other bits and bobs.

Won't get much done until the new year far too busy at the moment.
