western Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Main one with axle weight chart on it on a factory vehicle is riveted to the top of brake pedal assembly under the bonnet, long thin alloy one goes in front screen left side, but normally is riveted to the dash front edge but below the trimmed top, Was it a rebuild on a new galvanised chassis which wouldn't need any dvla involementor did you use a 2nd hand chassis which should use the 2nd hand chassis identity if it still kept it.

defender dinky Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 Hi western, it was the original military chassis which was in excellent condition so had it sand blasted and then galvanized, then powder coated, so has original vin numbers, the original vin plates are 3"×2" and other one is 5"×2" so seem to large to go on the dash?, dd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 If the 5 x 2 inch plate is the original military contract plate it would of been on the driver side end of the seat box facing the door, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
