Hi folks, about 20 years ago or so, I restored a BL J4 panel van. It was very dark green, almost black, registration WTC 443L. It was a 1622 petrol originally, though we fitted a 1800 diesel (and box too if my memory serves me right) from a Sherpa. It ran very well though the gear linkage took some sorting but was fine eventually. I sold it to a guy around the Newark area, I think he was involved in Narrowboat building or something. I'd love to hear if the thing is still going, perhaps the owner is known on here?

Cheers, Ian.

means it's had the trade section of the V5 filled out. It could have been scrapped and a Certificate of Destruction not issued, or it could be in some trader's yard somewhere. Doesn't look too hopeful, anyway.
