not sure about the moke, and haven't had time to check the mania forums (heck! i hardly have time to check ours!) but the other two look like the ones that used to sit out back in craig mcguire's lean-too/make shift storage. when he moved to his most recent location a lot of stuff just WENT and these look like a couple of his.

Ebay #250202366083 is not an estate. It's a converted van. It's possible it's a wood load floor van which makes it unusual and possibly rare. It could also be a metal load floor van that had the front section of the floor cut away. We would have to see what the remainder of the load floor looks like under the carpet.

Oh yeah, and he thinks he has roll down windows. :)

Cheers,

Kelley

there are a ton of other give-away details that also paint this as another project someone built and the seller knows nothing about really. sorta like a cooper-s truck.

Amazing! The two half Minis went for $1000 each.
The crashed Moke didn't reach reserve at $2000.
