vanbody to truck cab?

looking to convert my 1990 200tdi vanbody to a truckcab so apart from the actual truck cab is there anything else i need to take into consideration? obviously the rear door needs exchanging - unbolt v-b stick on t-c but will i need anything else? anybody know where to source one from? would be willing to px my vanbody for it! (lack of storage and all that!)
cheers!

D'yer know there's more van bodies and truck cabs going up and down the British Isles that illegal immigrants at the moment.

aye lad but this ones got its paper-work!

Hi mate

I have a 1994 defender truck cab and i have been looking for a back body for ages.

Can you pm me with some details and were you are then maby we can sort something out.

Cheers Adam

oh yes i am in barnstaple north devon.

I'm doing the opposite to my 200 TDi (Truck Cab to Van Body).
I've got the roof and sides, but I need a rear safari door.

I've got a truck cab and almost new tailboard to sell / swap.

Wanna do a trade? Whats yer rear door like?

nice offer guys but i'm oop north to you ! based in worcestershire dy13 would be up for trade / swap but you two are about 3-4 hours drive for me i think? the van body is in good nick few light scratches but no serious dents or owt! safari doors good too considering its got the spare wheel on it no split frame and closes with a cluck instead of a whack if you get my drift! could possibly take off the v-b & door - take pics post em up and stick it on me trailer and take the jetta for a rip down the m5 and meet up halfway perhaps but wont be until spank-holiday weekend? need to make room in the garage if i whip the roof off!!

I'll pass that one over to you Adam - I'm away next Bank Holiday.

well that would be the soonest it could be done! only just got the 90 so want to source one and get an idea of cost involved px would be an obvious bonus so i dont keep tripping over the remains!!

its a 90 is it??????

could be a problem as mine is a 110!!!!!!!!
