But they just have the codes in the casting, no rivited plate, where is the photo taken from ?

I see you have a couple of CU vans already, you would be better taking a photo from underneath, or from a zoomed out position

Unless you have some other photos it doesn't look like he really wants to sell it then.

Unless there's a convincing story that plate would have me running a mile
