MK1 Identification Question

Postby welshrussell » Wed Sep 13, 2006 2:18 pm

I'm trying to find out what model my 1976 Campervan is.
I've got 2 metal plates on each side of the cab seats in the doorwells full of numbers, but they don't make much sense when I look them up in my Haynes Manual?

Can anyone give me a clue :?

Like MrMP says, a pic might be helpful (though I don't think it's a good idea to post you chassis number on the internet). One sounds like it could be an SVO plate, but I can't think why a camper would be SVO, though being a Mk1 I could be wrong. I reckon one could be the manufacture's plate.

Chances are if it's got 4 wheels, it's a SWB.
