We show first results of a multifrequency survey focused on the mechanisms driving the transformation of cluster galaxies, from late to earlier S0-types. We compare the ram-pressure effects seen on 21cm-HI images with those mechanisms affecting the old stellar disks seen on deep optical and NIR images. Our targets are the Abell clusters A85, A496, A2670, which span different relaxation degrees, masses and X-ray luminosities.
