Have you seen all the small drawers and stuff? They don't seem to be secured. I wonder how that one handles bumpy roads.

Still very nice setup, I agree. I'd hate driving it though. I always hate it when something is loose in the car and rattles away on every turn or pothole. And in all those drawers, there is a lot of stuff to rattle... it would drive me even further beyond the brink of sanity.

I'm sure you could freight it over for not too much.

That's like the locksmith an version of the Batmobile!

The customers get the full works when they phone up a lockie who has one of these... You'd almost expect a manicure to come with the lockout. :P
Time has passed, and I have loved many women. And as they've held me close, and asked if I will remember them, I've said, "Yes, I will remember you." But the only one I've never forgotten is the one who never asked.

Agreed, the freight is usually not the issue. But I don't know the UK motor vehicle regulations. Here in Germany it is a nightmare to get a foreign car onto the road. First you need to get preliminary COC papers. Then you take these papers to the technical supervision instance, and you have to prove that the presented hunk of loosely arranged steel, glass and plastic with the 4 rubberized round feet is actually a car/truck according to the german laws. It wont be, they find something everytime. Then you need new headlights or whatever other stuff is not conforming or you can get a exemption for that.

I'd say getting this think road-ready for Germany is in the range of 2000-2500€. Dunno about the UK though, as I said...

That is a sweet deal. It's a modified Ford Ambulance. Only 60,000 mi., has plenty of life left to it! Front and back heat/AC! This guy thought of every thing. Pitty he got MS. I hope he gets a good deal out of this!
