Thanks heaps for the replies guys,that's correct it has the 8 thumb screws on the battery box i can see why they changed that,two hinges holding the front grille on and seams in the side of the front guards/fenders..I would really like to get some correct data plates, Jim would you have an email address for Brian asbury it not that's ok i will try that number never called over seas before

Thanks for the photo that's great is there any where else there could be the serial number there is no plate behind the seats or can i cross reference the cfr number some how to get close to the serial number
