Hi Dean, I had one of these vans, Reg No AVN 682T, It was one of the later ones, so mine was a Dodge.
I kept it for about a year for some of the Oddball single pallet jobs that turned up for delivery to any
location in the U.K. The Walk-Thru cab was spacious so I installed a wall and a single bunk behind the
cab seats. The engine was a 4 cylinder Perkins, and it was the noisiest engine that I had ever heard.
I happened to have a large piece of deep pile carpet from home, so I fitted it around the engine cover
and the forward part of the cab…It didnt make a bit of difference :cry: . After about 1 year, I sold it
to a Corner shop bakery in Liverpool, and replaced it with a Mercedes-Benz 307D box van.

Cheers, Ray Smyth.
