Chassis cabs we buy

Make clear whether loose body panels, fittings and spare parts form part of the proposed sale.Selling your chassis cab?
The registration may describe the original vehicle more clearly than its current body. Explain any difference when giving your details. Existing conversion records, body plates and repair invoices can help tell the story without guessing the specification of an unfinished build.
- Is the chassis bare, partly built or carrying a complete body?

- Has the chassis been altered, damaged or repaired?

Josh DayQuestions about selling your chassis cab
Can I sell a chassis cab after removing its body?
Yes. Give an accurate description of what is left on the vehicle and why the body was removed. Include photos from the rear and both sides. Say if the removal affected lights, wiring or its ability to move. That information is needed when discussing collection as well as the valuation.
What if my conversion was never finished?
Explain the build stage and identify parts that are fitted, loose or missing. Existing plans, receipts and body builder documents may clarify what was intended. Keep the description focused on the vehicle being sold today. Tell us about any known mechanical faults that developed while the project was standing.
Should I describe the cab or the fitted body first?
Give the base make and model from your paperwork, then name the fitted body and its purpose. For example, a Transit with a box body needs details of both the Transit and the box. Include the cab layout, mileage and running condition before describing the rear equipment and its faults.
Can a chassis cab that will not drive be collected?
We buy non-runners and arrange free collection. Explain whether it rolls and steers, if the brakes are seized and whether anything projects beyond the chassis. Give the parking location and available access. Loose components and an incomplete body should be mentioned before a collection time is agreed.
Which documents should I gather?
Have the V5C, service records and any paperwork for body installation, alterations or removal ready. If a document is missing, say which one. Get a settlement letter where finance remains, as vandervan settles finance with the lender as part of the sale. Keep the vehicle's keys with the available records.
