 Please help me identify my van
« Thread Started on Apr 16, 2012, 7:50pm »

Hi All!!
This is my van and I am unsure as to the year of manufacture and I apologise in advance if it is classic not vintage.

What I do know:
It is a Viscount
It is aluminium
has E7362 on the front part of the chassis

Thanks in advance for any detail you can give me on the history.

G'day puddle74, and welcome to the forum! ;D

No, I think you'll just squeeze into the forum cut-off date. ;)

The "E" series chassis numbers were given to the Ambassador model, and if you click on this link, you'll see that E8135 has the date of February 1969 written on the back of some ply panelling, so yours would have to be from the later part of 1968 by the looks of it.

You can also have a look at E7939 by clicking on this link (but ignore all the discussion about the vans being from 1965. That's now incorrect. ;) )

cheers,
Al.
