i bought a really shonky old 70s Leyland van, i think its a Sherpa but it doesn't say sherpa on it only Leyland. I am trying to save it and get it back on the road. First thing i need is a steering lock FOUND ONE NOW ALso need heater intake grille steering wheel pad Back doors are pretty rusty, do later van doors fit? Thanks.

Must be a 74 then? - they became the Sherpa in 75.
Indicator stalk is common BL but the steering lock looks different to the norm?

Indeed is a 74. Possibly called the Leyland AM back then? (comes up as this on the web from the reg)

Wikipedia says they were just the “Leyland van” originally - AM could be Austin Morris?

I think the rear doors were unchanged for a long time - until the side/waist profile changed perhaps?

Austin Morris, aha plausible. I think 1960s Austin J van doors fit (smaller windows) roof skin looks same shape

Steering locks on eBay but not cheap! They’re not the “usual” BL type either? Looks more like the older Austin type?
