Anything that make’s Chris happy make’s us happy… he deserves this and more….
Spot on totally agree 😀😀
Yeah just look at his beaming face 😁!
Well said.
Well said mate
1000% agree he's so happy with he's like a kid in a sweet shop
Hi Chris and Rob, IMHO the reason you guys are successful is that you’re both genuine and you do things you both love! So when Chris and yourself go out and treat yourselves to something (a lawnmower, pick up, Reliant or anything else) it’s because YOU like it and not just channel content….however it’s because viewers love what you do it’s the reason we tune in…you don’t need to see what we want, for me, it’s you guys I tune in for and what you work on is a bonus!
Perfect for taking the jet-ski down the estuary! 😎
This was mine I was restoring it for my dad but sadly he passed away and we sold it unfinished the colour is BMC teal blue the chassis is post office red the engine is a low mileage 850
Love it! Probably get more attention driving along in that than Rob's Lambo!
I’ve not laughed at a video so much in a long time. Seeing Chris so happy is amazing! He clearly does like unique vehicles.
Chris and Rob's mobile coffee truck 🚚 ☕️
Hi guys I have a 1974 ant that I’m restoring got it running and repainted just on the brakes and back end now welcome to ant world lol 😂
Mines in green with a 750cc engine love it regards Kevin
I echo everything that has been said. Chris' reaction throughout is priceless. This world is a better place with this amount of joy in it.........
Brilliant video - good on you for doing something fun. Clearly this should have a motorcycle rack on on side - and a couple of DJ decks on the other side. Would look great at retro summer festivals...although whether they're mod or rocker is up to you...
The smile on Chrises face! Brilliant. Everybody needs a Chris in their life. Good luck to you both. Mick.
Ideal little utility truck for Chriss to use around the farm, or restore it to its former condition etc. Whatever he does I'm sure he will enjoy sorting it. Thanks Guys 👍👍
Did you find any half crowns under the seats Chris? 😉
On a serious note - so pleased for you! This has put a big smile on your face, worth every penny. Looking forward to seeing what you end up doing with it!
Had a regal saloon in early 80s winter, made me smile every time I drove it
I love Chris, he’s an amazing guy . Ice cream van should be on the list 😂😂
Never any doubt about which "vehicle" Chris was going to take/purchase. Chris said he goes back to 1970.I go back a wee bit futrher than that. Used to see these in abundance at Glasgow Central station and at my Local big bakery . I knew them as shunters moving all the stuff round off the Mail Trains. They were pretty common in the 1960/70s. No seen one for many a year.. Be good to see it running about again.
Chris deserves that little truck as much as we deserve the "will it run" video! Well done guys!
Never mind car vertical, go round a roundabout too quick it'll be car horizontal.
Cracking to see, love quirky vehicles
I’m with Chris with this one ,get a body on it and get it sign written “salvage rebuilds”👍
You guys, in particular Chris 🤪 work so hard nobody could grumble or question treating yourself even if it's a 3 wheeled truck nobody has heard of. 👍
Big congratulations 👏
The Ant is amazing. Surely you have to put a small bed on it and load a 1970's mower onto it's back, after all is is you Chris 'Mower Man'. To see you grinning from ear to ear just makes my day.
Seeing Chris face when he fist seen it just proves it’s the simple things in life that make you happy
The wee truck would look well with a recovery body or a flat bed on it with a 70's ride on mower on the back and take it to vintage shows.
£5000 price tag when it’s done. I’d love that little Ant. Hope you enjoy every minute owning it Chris mate.
I think the little truck is adorable. Chris is an engineer, and this little fellow is interesting to work on. Anyone can own an Audi, but how many people have one of these? I think it's great!
Brilliant can't wait to see what Chris does with it? He couldn't leave that fuel tank alone when you visited the auction! You guys work so hard you deserve it👍
Here we go guy's, Chris & Rob's mobile coffee van coming soon. Great Stuff.
A cheap bit of fun! What a conversation piece good for Chris!
Nice to see Chris happy with his purchase love seeing classic cars on the channel what ever they are would look nice as a tipper/pickup look forward to seeing more on this
Hi,
The Reliant "Ant" TW9, a Tom Karen's design, a business utility vehicle, from 1967 until 1987...
Nice one Chris! Can't wait to see it on the road again!
Mod : I think that's the greek version with LHD.
Turn it into a coffee shop as you drink so much salvage coffee bean you could call it lol
Never seen Chris smile so much nice quirky little buy cant wait to see the end result great video as always guys 👍👍
Make a great truck with a wooden flat bed. All nicely varnished
Great fun when your following the ruts on a snowy road 😧
Spun one hitting the slush ridge going into a roundabout. Hairy experience
Absolutely love it, proper unique and quirky little thing.
I think a proper solid wooden bed would look sweet with the wooden sides 👌🏻 regardless what Chris does to it I'm sure it will amaze us all on how talented he is 👍🏻
Funny seeing Chris’s face and how happy he was…….any other playful side of Chris brilliant
Rob run it through car vertical 😂😂
Put a box body on it chris and give it rob as a parts runner lol. Still loving the content lads 👍
Great to see Chris so happy!
I knew Chris would buy that, it's so him! I like the way the passenger seat converts to a porta-potty! 😂😂😂
I'd go back and get the scooter too, now that would be cool
You could put a coffee catering unit on the back, pay for itself in no time with all the coffee ye have.😁😁😁
Good for you, Chris! Buy what YOU like. Never explain, never apologise. Looking forward to see what you do with it. The bike carrier sounds great, and so does a little tipper.
Under £2k for such a fun vintage vehicle is great. I'm sure lots of enjoyment will be experienced.
Camper conversion
So good seeing Chris’s happy face 👌🏽
It would look good with a three wheeled Bond Bug on the back with some ramps to get it on and off...it would be like Thunderbird One and Two. 😂
he was so happy! :) - the great thing about liking all sorts, is that there's so much out there and you can avoid the "scene" costs you get with the obvious classics, a carrier for a 70's bike would be awesome!
Love it. Knowing you both like coffee, what about one of those conversions into a coffee van. One where all the kit is accessed from the side/rear. I think its a bit small for one where you stand inside. Then you could go to shows and earn money while attending. But whatever Chris chooses it will be great quality.
How about a mobile coffee van, as you guy's drink so much coffee ☕☕
Someone in our town has (or had, not sure if he still has it) a converted Ape coffee cart
Got to be a mobile coffee wagon!
Love it, 30 odd years ago I was a milkman and had one of these as my milk float, I was one of only two drivers in the yard that didn’t have to use an electric float, saved me about two hours a day with the extra speed.
Bloody love it, it will make you smile every time you drive it.... only weird thing I did see is that Chris didn't check it for loose change 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Hi.
I've just been looking at the you have got with the Range Rover Sport I've seen that you have got RPM on the diagnosis but no pulse up to the injector's and no fuel pressure up to the rail from the pump did you check the to see if the camshaft sensor has a feed and switching if not then the ECU won't pulse the injector's and won't open the pump fuel pressure to the common Rai line's.
Hope this helps if you still have the problem once you have fitted the new pump
The SDD diagnostic software might be the way to go.
Geoff Toole
The camera seems good to me. I think Chris has maybe got similar taste to me as I think that was the pick of the auction. For me it would have a be turned into a mini-artic like the Scammel Scarab but finding a 5th wheerl would be a bit of a challenge
It has definitely landed in the correct hands with Chris, love to see this finished, hopefully we will 👌
This is great, I knew Chris would buy this and I am glad he did, it's great to have this on the channel, it's an early Ant, I do remember our local Council having a couple of these in the early 80s for the parks and gardens as pick ups for moving plants, tools garden rubbish and the like. My mate,s Dad served his time with Reliant and that little engine was Reliant,s own and a surprisingly good little motor of 850cc used across the Reliant range apart from the Scimitar of course. I am going with the idea of a bike transporter doubling as a parts carrier maybe and would be great period sign written for advertising the business, good luck with it, it's fantastic
Chris looks so chuffed to bits and it will be interesting to see what he does with it 😀
Some how I don't think am surprised Chris bought that it's got Chris wrote all over it 😂
Love it, Chris looks so happy
I think a nice wooden flat bed or tipper back
Would really show Chris’s mastery of the wood 🪵
"Rob 'n' Chris Salvage Rebuilds International... New York Paris Kent" in yellow!
I think it needs a hyabusa motorbike engine fitting now now that would be funny
I’m guessing it’s left hand drive so the driver can keep close to the kerb when using the sweeper?
A Reliant Ant TW9 what a great vehicle. I had a 1965 Reliant Regal 3/25 saloon in the day. Happy Days. I am glad that Chris got the Reliant and I am sure that he will make a great job out of it
Put a bed on the back and make it your parts van with Salvage Rebuilds wrote on the side along with “No Waffle”. Well happy for Chris 🛻👍
Seeing Chris's smile was enough to know it was a sound investment. Loads of opportunities with this. If profit is needed something commercial like wedding, events or transport but in these trouble times a soup kitchen for the homeless or mobile food bank
1971, K reg i think. Reminds me of a Scammel Scarab - Like it Chris.
Yes, definitely like something you used to see around railway parcels offices back in BR times.
I thought the same. Passed my driving test in a Scammel Scarab in 1961
mobile coffee van , saves you keep popping to Macs
Great to see Chris happy he deserves it as do you Rob. Lovely thing this little 3 wheeled van is. Can’t wait to see what Chris does with it in the future.
Never even knew these existed until I saw the video! Love it. Can wait to see what Chris does with it.
If the blue is the original colour I strongly suspect that it was a Reading Borough Council vehicle, the JH in the registration number corresponding to Reading would lend credence to this. A nice little dropside body with hardwood boarding would be perfect for it.
A mobile coffee shop!
Just love it a three wheeled classic put a box on the back a couple of seats and a gaz stove of you go Chris, Salvage rebuilds decor and £1750 worth of big smiles
How outrageously happy is Chris?! I'm really pleased for him. I like that DS420 in the background.
Never seen 1 before, probably won't again, looks like a bond bug from the front,
👍SALVAGE REBUILDS UK
INDEPENDENT TRADERS !!!!
I liked that. I guessed Chris was going for that when he saw it a while ago. I think, fit a tow hitch tor your 70s/80s boat you got a few months ago and a nice wood flatbed.
Nice to see Chris so happy. He deserves it. I feel it’s a bargain personally. It’s unique and has nice history and lots of work been done. I no Chris will mint it and make it his own. I personally love the idea of a motorcycle carrier. Imagine that at a show with two classic bikes on the back.
Get a retro style sign written logo for the channel use as a promotional vehicle 🚑
5th wheel rob ? Don't you mean the 4th🤣🤣🤣
I think this is a great thing to work on as I remember these when I was about 8 and the bread man used it to deliver and also the milk. I used to help them for one penny! Look forward to Chris doing his thing. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Its good to see something Chris is excited by, its what life should be about, all hard work and no play gets old.
Have you put the code reader on it? 😀
Chuck a r1 engine in it 😂
Hi Rob and Chris brilliant video again I have driven a reliant when I was 18 now 74 love Chris’s idea for caring motorcycle’s I love the way you two where having a good laugh I love to see that keep up your brilliant work and videos Bernard
Gud on yer Chris as they say up here in Yorkshire,,if we were all the same life would be boring...I found a honda express in a ladies shed I was knocking down..it was her daughter's and hadn't been on the road since 1980, since then I have stripped it shot blasted it and powder coated the frame to as near as possible the original yellow some parts have been a bit tricky to find, mainly stuff comes from USA or Japan,,it's now finished and parked next to my R1 weekend toy in the garage...
Surfboard Carrier / Sales & Rental down in Cornwall ?
overpriced gin/pizza bar too
Guys, because it is no unique, what about renovating it into some sort of promotional vehicle for UK salvage Rebuilds? Something that you can possibly take to some shows to promote your channel?
When I first started work in January 1975, Bolton Council had a load of these for road sweepers & parks maintenance! Not seen one for years. Thanks for the laugh guys.
I thought it was a Kamel Scammel at first, back-bone of British Rail Service as was. I remember as a nipper in the 50’s seeing these down at Halifax rail depot picking up trailers stacked up with cotton for the mills….all gone now !
Probably left hand drive because the driver of the road sweeper would need to be UK kerbside?
Exactly right... they all are .. and right hand drive in right hand countries.
get a yamaha fs1e and a raleigh chopper on a flat bed and make it 70s retro guys
a chopper costs more than the van these days...
Sell it as one of those posh coffee vans that go to festivals 🤣🤣🤣
Chris you are my type of guy I love anything different like this..... If I had to pick between yours and robs I pick this little van all-day long I love it
Make it into a camper I'll be interested lol
£17.50 that's a bargain - I wouldn't have gone above twenty quid
Love the idea of Chris rocking up in that at a show with a 70’s dirt bike on the back would be cool. 🍻
I subscribed when the subscriber count was under 100 and in all that time this is one of the best bits of content. So happy for Chris and I know it will come out great no matter what he does with it in the end. Articulation would be fun. Cheers guy's
I think Chris will get more looks in that Reliant than you do in your Lambo...
didnt they make simmerters
Growing up in Broomfield hospital staff houses, I remember these being driven by the gardeners back in the 1970's.
What a fascinating vehicle, totally quirky. Total respect to Chris , he likes what he likes. I like TR7’s there’s no accounting for taste!
I can’t wait for the” will it run” video and what ever he decides to convert it too, your subscribers will support him.
Good on you mate!
