1968 Ford Transit Mk1 Camper Engine, gearbox and brakes overhauled; running and driving; a well equipped and very smart MkI Transit camper In 1965, Ford launched the front-engined Transit into a market segment largely dominated by so-called 'forward control' vehicles where the driver sat virtually on top of, or right next to the engine.
The engines used in the UK were the Essex V4 for the petrol version in 1.7- and 2-litre capacities.

The Transit has been the best-selling light commercial vehicle in Europe eversince, with over 8 million of them produced, sold and thrashed to within an inch of their lives; who hasn’t been stuck behind one, or had one up their own exhaust - often at the same time.
Used and developed for any and all jobs, it wasn’t long before a camp...
