How about MMOC/Minor Clubs offering a service - with a signed Certificate - to stamp chassis numbers on some hidden
part of a Minor's bodyshell that shouldn't be repainted?
Vendors won't allow viewers to scrape paint off gloss painted engine bays nor drivers' floors to check chassis nos.
Did a CSN just before xmas where the body code said '62 and the id said '59 and I couldn't check the bodyshell chassis stamp
because it was covered in thick gloss paint.
Thought for the day.
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!
thanks for tip-off, daisy 1968, this one certainly looked at first glance like my girl, heart leaped quite a bit, but on closer look sadly not. lots of genuine photos on seller's link, good luck to him
I had a Black 1967 saloon stolen also in march in the Ealing area.I called local taxi firms asking their drivers to keep a look out and even offerd a reward on the local radio.Unfortunately I never got it recovered.I did, however, manage to find and buy a simular one with the insurance money.
