1972 series 3 SWB petrol according to V5 and registered historic but closer inspection of vehicle makes me think it is actually a 1982 vehicle. No VIN on chassis. What are the implications?
Engine (5 bearing crank), wiring (brake check relay in particular)If it's yours keep shtum...if vin plate matchs log book thats what counts...dont open a can of worms if you dont have too...what makes you think it's an 82?...
Engines can be swapped at anytime, my 2a has got a series 3 engine in it....Engine (5 bearing crank), wiring (brake check relay in particular)
I'd be getting some suitably thick paint or underseal to cover the number on the chassis if it were mineThere’s a VIN plate on bulkhead that matches the log book but no number on the chassis. The mot history stacks up although it hasn’t had one for a couple of years. I guess perhaps it’s just a bit of a Trigger’s broom.

Sorry long day, I read not number instead of no numberAccording to OP there is no number on chassis but vin plate and log book match it's had upgrades and parts replaced as most 40yr Landys have...no problem in my opinion...
