 Hi there, welcome to the world of the dodge 50, so what is the base vehicle? S46/ S56 / S66 or S75, the way to find out is to look at the VIN on the log book, should look a bit like SDGB56AOCED211255 the B56 on that example means it is an S56 (5600kgs) vehicle, what age is it and is it right or left hand drive?

If you need any help or info on your vehicle just post the VIN here and I can give what info I have, if it was one that was made between July 1982 and June 1990 I should have the original build sheet for it too.

 Hi there SDFB66KOCDD209714 was originally a stock vehicle (not ordered by any dealer) and built around May 1983 (but might not have been registered untill much later) had a perkins 4.236 engine fitted with 4.875 rear axle ratio, 16 inch rims with 7.00 x 16 tyres, 4 speed gearbox, and had a tacho fitted and was also a high screen van before it was converted to a motorhome.

The original build sheet for that vehicle shows it as a S66 / RB66 (6600kgs) not a RB56 (it can be confusing but RB66 and S66 or even B66 are actually the same) though it might have been downrated to 5600kgs giving it a RB56 Vin you can see the original build spec sheet here http://www.dodge50.co.uk/Chassis%20numbers/MK1%20Chassis%20from%20July%201982%20to%20March%2084/Chassis%20Build%20Records%2050%20Series%20Evolved%201982-1987/DD208300-ED211298/DD209559-DD209811/00000157.jpg

What is the new VIN it has been given as that would be good to know.

 Well that is a weird VIN, never seen one like that before, I will give it to a friend at renault trucks head office and see what he has on it, or even if it shows as a renault vin.

 Ah, that is why it looks so weird. What I don't understand is how 2 vehicles had the same reg plate?
