Title: CHASSIS NUMBER Post by: yackboy49 on January 07, 2018, 04:35:24 PM Hi all,
what sort of info does a chassis number give you ? (number 85522A ) A for Adelaide ? can you decipher a year from this number ? have no ID plate on the fire wall. cheers YB Title: Re: CHASSIS NUMBER Post by: mcl1959 on January 07, 2018, 04:40:49 PM Yes the 8 at the start signifies 1958. Your car is the 4522nd FC assembled at the Adelaide plant.
I can date more accurately by running it in my database. Ken Title: Re: CHASSIS NUMBER Post by: yackboy49 on January 09, 2018, 09:16:46 AM thanks for the info Ken, are you able to tell if a Standard or a Special ?

I have a number of ID plates if you need to match one up to your car. Ken |
