My 109” 6 pot was first registered 1/10/71. The serial no is 1532 which if memory serves me is in the last 750 made. I think my SII may be a bit later in the SII run because it was first registered in 1962, I’ll have to dig out the info.

By the way what’s P&T? (I’m probably about to make myself look daft 😂)

No - not at all. Its me.. I grew up in Ireland. We referred to the Post Office vehicles as the Post and Telegraph vehicles after the Department of Post and Telegraphs - hence P&T. Ignore me - totally irrelevant. I was thinking more of the UK Post Office fleet, but mixed up the names!

My 88” was first registered 12/02/1962 however the serial number doesn’t really tie in with it being that late. The table I have seen suggests 17,000+ were built in 1961 but my serial number is only 10,000+ the notes on the table say that the figures are not accurate and they are more of an even split over the production years so it’s difficult to tell.
