And this commer was in front, left that there completely collapsed, not worth my time trying to get that out, and I'm in Portsmouth so fuel and a long drive, then struggle to get it out just to scrap it, I think by now the bulldozers are in flattening the building

OK hope you enjoy the pics, I will take some of the insides next time I'm up the workshop, not sure if this the place to ask, but last 3 letters of vin are GDO, it could be GD zero, or GDO, so if I decode from memory I have another mk1 thats HA = 68 march, so GD =67august? Or is it DO the o is close to the d and there's a gap then the Numbers

Im not breaking it up, van only for rebuild, after all that time sat there people trying to buy it, and take a few bits of it and scrap it, nope I bought it because I wanted to save it, unless some one else wants to bribe me so they can save it, other than that I'll keep it, in my hands its safe
