It looks and sounds like a nice early van , in need of a little TLC both inside and out
I'd be wanting to see the receipts for the engine and box , also the mots etc etc
what kind of money is it up for ?

if its near enough pop round and have a good look around it

many thanks for your advice T'Onion
Im looking at paying between £2 - 2.5k

Do you think this is overpriced?

I think i see some signs of the typical westy rusty panel bit under the fridge vent. From what i understand that is a bit of a b@llocks to sort out.

I'm sure I saw this advertised for 4k recently - I nearly went to see it, should be a good buy at 2k if the bodywork isn't too bad close-up
