Question

Postby Softy » Sat Dec 12, 2020 1:05 pm

:) Hi everyone, I am new to your site.
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if the front drivers side and passenger side doors,front guards and bonnet from a 1970 mk1 transit van
are the same for a 1974 transit van.
I am the owner of the 1974 van looking for replacement parts , and i have found this 1970 transit for sale, so before i buy it, l am hoping that someone could confirm that these parts are interchangeable.
Thanks in advance for any help in confirming .

Hi Dumper, thank you so much for your reply.
I think I understand .
Just to be sure you are saying that the parts from the 1970's model will definitely fit on my 1974 model .
