Commission & other numbers


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Whilst reading the numbers in the 4a engine compartment ( ?? too much spare time?) I've become confused at their meaning. Is there an easy e-guide anywhere that I can refer to ?

 

What I've got is the 'normal' oblong-ish plate showing commission number of CTC 65492 O(verdrive), engine number that coincides with the number stamped into the block, plus paint (19) & trim (11) etc, BUT there's also a separate metal strip riveted onto the bulkhead with just a stamped number of 65154CT on it. Can someone tell me what that number refers to please ? The normal oblong plate is headed up in German ........ is that normal ? The car was nut and bolt rebuilt in 92/93 ............ which may be totally irrelevant I suppose !!

 

Regards to all,

 

Mike.

Mike,

 

The metal strip you refer to is called (I think) the 'body in primer' number and is therefore irrelevant. I have seen a commission plate in German before, but it was on a LHD 1962 TR4 CKD car assembled in Belgium for the German market, along with a steering lock and various metric nuts and bolts.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Graeme
