[Staowners] CHASSIS NUMBER

[George Simpson - Forums]

I've found it on my car - it matches the bulkhead plate (luckily!!!) It 
starts within 1/2 inch of the front end of the chassis rail, ignoring 
the square, welded in jacking tube.

On the car in Holland, the body has been off the chassis for the 
restoration and the parts taken off are in boxes so he wasn't sure if he 
could find the bulkhead plate. I scraped mine clean and sent him a photo 
together with the descriptions of where to find it

Thanks all - more after Easter.
