Hi mate yes she did sail through in the end funnily enough it was because I got stopped by the police as my rear lights had stopped working and I mean everything one night along parkway in C/ford they through the book at me and the truck was ordered off the road got given a prohibition notice ........the loom was rotting and had broken cutting power to the rear lamps so it started from there as I had to make up a new loom she ended up getting re-wired using the bulk of the loom from the later van and the rest was made up from scratch...
She is actually registered in 1985 but yes 84/85 is B plate.
Thanks for the comments Steve after all that I done to her most people would say why did I bother but I had my own reasons for it and I don't know why but I do like these old wagons.
Yes definitely want a better engine just so she has a bit more grunt for pulling up hills etc.
