No wont be under the battery - it should be either to the left or the right of the wire retainer tab spot welded to the skirt - It is much smaller stamp size than FC uses on the driver's side. - Having said that there are 2 possibilities why it may not have one at all. It may have had an accident at some stage and a replacement subframe or just the skirt itself was put in, or for some inexplicable reason a some FE's appear to have no chassis numbers at all and they do not appear to have ever been repaired. I have seen about 6 or so FE's like this - all 1957 models and the only logical answer I can come up with is that maybe they had an accident when they were very new and the repair has been done to original quality and it has aged so that it looks original now.
I can't see why any car would leave GMH without a chassis number - The number has to be on the sales docket!

Lookin good FantaC, that plastic plug is where the reversing light option would normally go
The tail light you are using would have had the brake and blinker operating off the same globe (red blinker)

Thats how they came out of the factory. Indicators only options on the standard models, Specials (225,229) had them from factory, so would have to still be legal in oz. I think you should be able to argue the point unless they can find legislation to prove otherwise. Cheers Stewy  |

If you haven't grown up by 50, you don't have to.

I don't know where the post was but Pete(FC hoon) was telling us about Rivnuts not long ago, you fit them into the front end and they are threaded to take a normal bolt instead of the dodgy standard ones that strip all the time.
