What you *really* want to do is get an old Stalwart and put a tilt over the
load bed and fit 3-4 rows of forward facing seats with integrated belts
(RRC seats would seem ideal for that). Should be able to get 12-16 seats in
with through-access.

I would have thought more than 16, but no through access. Tilt came as
standard but a bit dark inside. 3mpg might prove a tad expensive.

Christ!! Access to the running gear is bad enough without putting more
seats in the bloody thing?

I can let you have the name of a man who will build you one!

He has built 6 wheelers before so this is just another challenge.

Look for Malcolm Whitbread. He is up in mid Wales. Builds trialers and
racers donw to 60" wheel base.

Usually at Old Sodbury in October.

That's not a trialer - it's a motorised wheel barrow

He did the chassis and space-frame work when I turned the 90 into a
full-time trialler. Well recommended. Work is high quality, he knows his
stuff, and he's a nice guy with it.
