It will still be RHD, and it'll still carry the 1987 registration number. There's nothing dodgy about it, it's no different to reshelling it with an identical 80s body. If I were to use the vans carte Gris, re-MoT it with the vans chassis number and get it re-registered in the UK, to enable me to take advantage of the tax break for cars made before '73, then that'd be a bit naughty. But it doesnt come with a carte gris, so i can't do that.

I sort of get this feeling that the end of that sentance was gonna be......... "because i would be if i had the doc's" but obviously id never suggest that on a public-ish forum.

 Re: 1987 2CV Bamboo
This is the kind of thing I have in mind, thanks to Max Page (Graphic designer)  I chopped a model van about last night to get an idea of what I want it to look like.   The cash is posted off, the hire van arranged, hopefully it'll go smoothly...
