I originally posted this in the do you know section and there wasn't a response so I'm posting it here. I was wondering if anyone could help me decode my chassis and engine numbers:-
Engine number - 10MA-U-L 199039
Car number - OFB2/ 100537

Apols for delay, took ages to look through GPO engine lists.....199054 fitted to 11/65 Engineers van.

Originally fitted with a 9MUH, re-engined with a c11/65 1098cc

O = O series 1/4 ton (Q in GPO speak)
F = pickup
B = Grey
2 = RHD Export
Built at Cowley 2/60 - not Abingdon.

Cab code Z27253 C6**** - would need this number to confirm age.

Hope info is of use.
