Reclaiming original registration and transferring replacement reg to other vehicle

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone had gone through the process of reclaiming an original reg plate, and transferring the re-registered plate to another vehicle? My LD10 got a new plate in the 1980s, but the original is still available, but would like to keep both plates if possible.
Many thanks,
Chris

Using molasses for rust removal

Hi everyone, I'm restoring a 1951 LD10 and I'm looking to save as much money as possible by doing the work myself where I can. I've seen lots of promising videos and discussions online, but I wanted to see if anyone in DLOC had any first hand experience of this rust removal technique. I'm looking at...

Re: LD10 wiring harness

Hi Chris, I had 2 new harnesses made for both my LD10's. Which one is yours? Cheers Keith Hi Keith, I've got a 1951 Barker. The original wiring in the engine bay was an absolute mess, so although it's in one of the many bits in bags from "Lanky" (original I know) for safe keeping, I doubt...

LD10 wiring harness

Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone had attempted making their own wiring harness for the LD10? I know that one is available to buy, but surely this is fairly straight forward and considerably cheaper if done at home? The only thing I'd have to guess at would be the required lengths of each differ...
