Found Another, Picked up today.

[Savvi]

Had a call from a guy saying he had some Mk1 spares for sale would i be interested ?

 

 

Went to meet him had a look at the mention parts and he said my mate has a shell if your interested ?

 

So a quick call and went went about a mile up the road to find this:

 

 

It has no paperwork but the vin is:

 

BBATNR

 

I know its a 1300L but wondered if it's tax free ?

 

If so it might be worth me welding it up

 

Needs

Floorpans

Doors

Bonnet

Arches etc but i've seen worse repaired.

 

It's a "L" reg.

 

Going back to pick it up next week

[Slammed]

yet again youre the lucky one

[Lukey48screamer]

Thats mint mate!

No honestly it dont look too bad, its 1973 so I think its just outside tax free - Ud have to chase up the VIN to see if it was built/regstred before 1st Jan 73.. would be easier with log book but hey good find

How do you know it's an L reg? If you know the plate, run it through the vehicle check at the DVLA website.

[Savvi]

Number plates are in the boot ................... it's not on dvla website as it's been sat for about 10 years.

 

 

Just looked it's May '73 so looks like it missed tax free ?

[FredTransit]

Where does it say May 73? Could it be built just 6 months earlier? If so it's tax free.

[Savvi]

I'm not sure how you tell when it's built but the vin number shows NR which means it's May '73 ?

[capriaddict]

my book says 'NR' was built in June 1973

[caprinerd]

my book says 'NR' was built in June 1973

 

same as mate

[FredTransit]

Oh dear, it's getting worse . Looks like it's not tax free then. Never mind, still a good find though

[escort new boy]

£350, youd get that all day long on flea bay thats how i look at it.

 

Cheers

[Lukey48screamer]

Weighing that in is treason my friend!

Someone somewhere will do the work it deserves

[FredTransit]

Too right. It's not always about a quick quid for scrap.

[Savvi]

Reg number is TBH 437L if anyone can get any details ?

[DarrenM]

I'd just put the plates back on, clean it up and put it on ebay 99p start and no reserve. It should £700ish.

hi , PM`d ya

Vehicle details could not be found

 

As it has not been possible to locate the vehicle details, your enquiry cannot proceed and has been cancelled.

 

If you want to check the vehicle record held by DVLA...

 

Not good. doesn't mean you can't put it back on the road though. With the VIN number you can get the reg back. You need the forms from the DVLA.

[Savvi]

I tried phoning dvla and

 

"due to industrial action we are unable to take your call"

 

 

Is it the normal V5 application form ?

 

I'll get it back next week and see how bad it is may use it for one of the race cars or put it back on the road.

[CrazyCharlie]

why can't i ever find something cool like that

I would start with the application (V62) and see what the DVLA say. You have all the information on the car, the chassis number and reg.

 

just one thing, it could be that the reg has been sold to put on a non ford, which is why the details can't be found. The DVLA will know this, if you phone them again.
