So the vehicle is now considered "vehicle without a compliance plate"

So we go to the vehicles with out compliance plate section.
Clause 1

1. Vehicles currently registered in NSW
A vehicle currently registered in NSW and not fitted with a compliance plate can continue to be
registered providing it remains roadworthy.

As you can clearly see nowhere is an identity swap required. It simply states The vehicle can continue to be registered and the vehicle has no valid compliance plate.
.
Oh gawd, I swore I wasn't going to wade into this.
But you just sumed it up "the vehicle has no valid compliance plate" in that the only thing calling it a sandman, on the car with a swaped chasis is the compliance plate. In this instance the compliance plate in invalid (ie, this is no longer relevent to this car). So if the compliance plate is no longer vaild, it's no longer the car on the compliance place, so it's no longer a sandman.

No-one said anything about it not being able to be registered, of course you can, it's just not registered as the original car as it is no longer the original car.

TooTees, whatever we're calling it, your van when restored will be great and you'll love it if your threads on fixing tailgates are anything to go buy.

I think from now on, whenever someone feels like replying to this thread they should go imediatly to the shed and do an hours work on their van as penance, I can't see any new information coming to light. I've just come from the shed so I'm excused...
