Not sure I want to know the answer but.....

I bought my bus about 18 months ago well before I found TLB and with very little idea of what I should be looking for. Having read many posts on here I know I'm not the only one so I don't feel too bad.
One of the big attractions was as a 72 she was tax free, however I now know that in reality she should be a cross dresser, not a late.
Have checked out the m-plate which the chasis number seems to match and have run it through the DVLA site and all say she is a 72.
Paperwork and all other details say built October 71, registered January 72.

So question is, is it dodgy, could it be correct or has it just been completely rebuilt with new panels?

 

Does the petrol filler cap have a flap or is it exposed?

 

Exposed

 

Wouldnt worry ,just enjoy the free tax ,mines due at the end of this month

 

I cant see a single crossover part on it dude

 

Nice van BTW

 

I actually had a 1973 Pontiac that was sold as a 74 because it hadn't sold by the end of the year,drove crazy thinking there was some shady business going on,

 

Wish mine was registered as a 72 ,wouldnt mind at all as its all there.
Its only a number that ends up saving you over £200 a year.

 

does it match the chassis number that is stamped on the LH side of the engine bay?

 

You may be over thinking it if all the numbers match --than no worries!!!!! ;D
