Title: Re: id plate Post by: mcl1959 on April 11, 2007, 11:22:13 PM Your car is the 12,278 th wagon made in Adelaide and is about half way through the run since there were roughly 30,000 built there in total. This would put its build date at around Feb 1959. I can calculate more accurately from chassis number.
Trim is Fall red and black Paint is India Ivory over Empress Maroon ID plate has a couple of errors FC 229 12278 A - the A denotes Adelaide paints are 256 7770 and 253 2039 Regards Ken |
