Hi cookie and :welcome4: to the site,Havent heard of the Avonway but sounds like its a good enough conversion to put a name on it I did a "conversion" on an old bakers van about that time also,It was ex mothers pride with a perkins4/108 engine,needed an oil change every 1000 miles or it went like treacle..

Hi mid4did
Thanks for the warm welcome and ok about the Mothers pride van It sounds a bit like the ford pop that I had that used more oil than petrol.Did you get much use from it? I was really lucky with the Acres van as I managed to buy the complete interior of a transit autohome and transplanted it into the Acres van. I must have been Sunblessed. I was hoping to find out a bit about the Avonway satisfy my curiosity. I have seen a vw and a renault with the same Avonway brand but I am still no nearer to discovering who built it, anyway I will be giving it a run to Seaford tomorrow and checking everything out before I go on site.

Hi cookie and :welcome2:

How about posting somes pictures on here? I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious to see the machine :thumbs:

Hope you get a lot of enjoyment from the Avonway, I did a quick search about it but only came up with mentions of a Renault version so good luck with your own research.

Looks good cookie :thumbs:

Hi Neil
I have been trying to reply to your message but my laptop has gone mad. I am now on tablet but connection is painfully slow despite the fact that I am using fibre optic broadband. Anyway I have found some info on the Avonway on the numberplate it seems they were called Avonway convertions and when I checked the phone number it appears that it is at an airfield industrial estate in Evesham and is now being used by some sort of VW dealer. Took a look at your van and it looks the business but I will need to win the lotto before I can put my order in.
Cheers for now
