Marks new car- Wild-goose chase?

Got it! White roof, steel panels, well-known car, lots of forum members salivating!

Forget Hopkirk/Sellers et al. Its got to be the Pink Wildgoose Mini Ice Cream van!
Don't ask me how I know. I must have an instinct for these things....
Looking at the last pic of a Mini Ice cream van I wonder if the perv reading his adult journal has decided 'knockin out Mr Whippy's' is not for him.
Enjoy your new wheels Mark. Look out on the bends.

Wow, Very, very cool car! look forward to hearing the tale of discovery.

Though I was kind of hoping it might have been the one with 'Zoom' psychadelically painted down the side that you see in lots of '60's compilation album sleeves!

unless I'm wrong in my guess, and it still might say 'zoom' down the side!

After not being on the board for a while due to being really busy recently I'm intrigued, have the beans been split yet?
