The van on the right is the next victim - It will wear the roof from the wagon on the left and the wagon roof in the back ground will supply parts for the rest of the chop. Result ? A sedan delivery that won't give away its wagon heritage.

streetneats column

The column is the original cut down to suit the rack and pinion. This was so I could retain the original steering wheel and character of the EK.
