WnG Anti-Pesto van touring the UK
Perhaps the worst part of being an American WnG fan is that I don’t know about things like this latest news tidbit – a group called “the International Austin A30/A35 Register (IAR)” has created a real life version of the Anti-Pesto van, which is an Austin A35. I learned about this via an email from one of the men who thought up the idea, Mark Armé:
Thought that you might be interested to know that there is an official Wallace & Gromit promotional van on the streets of the UK – the only one in the World. It is an original Austin A35 van and a perfect replica of the van seen in the film. It is the result of an exclusive collaboration between Aardman Animation and Flying-A.net, which is home to the International Austin A30/A35 Register.
That’s so cool!
You can see pictures of the original van and it’s transformation on the IAR website: http://wallaceandgromit.flying-a.net/
