Evening all,

I have been trawling for info on the Chevrolet MCP of which there is a great wealth of knowledge on this forum.
I have recently purchased what I believe to be a 1542 but in all honesty I'm a bit confused as to its exact identity due to the vast array of differences between the designations.

Is there a check list one could go through or would it be possible to produce one, to ascertain model designation or is it not that simple due to the amount of variations and seeming overlaps?

I have been around and owned CMP's for most of my life and there are fairly definitive design changes which aid model identification, is it the same with MCP's and as such am I missing something?

Also, I'm struggling to find the chassis number. I have looked by the spring hangers but found nothing, could the number be higher up the side rail and be obscured by the inner wings?
If anyone has a photo of where their number is located that would be a great help.

Cheers,
Dave
