Hello Dirk,

Succes with the restauration!
If you need help with remanufacturing sheet metal parts let me know.
I have drawings which I made for my restauration.

You Staghound was made in early September 1943.
The Ordnance serial number should be 4740 and is stamped on the left lower corner of the front armour plate near the fender attaching bolts.
Next to that number, a British acceptance number is stamped also.
There is no mathematical relation between these two numbers but the number should be around the 2200.
I hope you can find these numbers, they can be stamped quite light so they are hardly visible.

Attached photo shows a Staghound with a similar registration number painted in blue.
That car was made later in September 1943.

The Belgian army received some Staghounds as early as in the winter of 1944-1945.
