    i had a van, i really liked my van but it had a rusty shell, i found another solid shell and put all my van's parts onto the soild shell! a reshell!

    i then upgraded my engine from a 1.7D to a 1.7TD, an engine conversion!

    whats different to anything anyones done on here before?

    i didnt! i changed everything over to the good shell, interior, dash, clocks, suspension, brakes, doors, windows, exhaust!

    and engine, but then i though i'd upgrade to a TD engine so put that in instead! insurance has been informed!

    Jack, they're fantastic engines dude. Slow as you like but will do incredibly high mileages no bother at all. In fact one of the most reliable Vauxhall diesel engines you'll ever find.

    *I think swapping number plates over is asking for trouble though.

    its not been just a case of swapping the number plates over! check my log book, vin plates, engine codes and chassis numbers! and my insurance, all line up! chassis numbers have been changed on the log book in accordence of proving the rusty shell has been scrapped/crushed, which i have! engine conversion has been varified by insurance, no cuertificate needed as the engine CC or fuel type has not increased!

    Every single one I've ever seen has been blowing out of the dipstick.

    What Ronnie has done is perfectly legal, I've done it myself.

    This and that
    I love the way people are getting so uptight about this! lmao
    Personally I cant see any problem with what you've done, Ive known people do it over the years with Minis and the like and to be honest, Id probably do it myself!

    Nice van btw
