NZ or Aussie Carrier ?
Hi Guys, I will add my 2cents worth. NZ carriers hull build numbers were stamped on the front top of the Right hand towing eye and this number will possibly only go as high as 1210. Sometimes the " T " number is on the Left hand side towing eye top. This is true for the later LP2A's.
The early LP2 number is stamped on the middle towing Eye, sometimes you need to rub the area with a little sandpaper and it shows up.If anybody is handy to this one in the islands it would be nice to know the numbers as I have a bit of a registar of NZ carrier numbers here in NZ. So it usually does not matter whether the mudguards have rusted off or the data plate is gone , we still can trace it manufacture.
