Yup that's one of the last Deluxes, late 67 or as you say 68 from my book, Eng number and chassis in similar range, so probably original engine? does it match the plate?? Is that the one that was in bits in primer on E-bay?

Minifreak1 Re the colour code 1/Indigo Blue/3 The prefix gives the paint type and the suffix gives the manufacturer The 1 means it is Enamel (Baked) The 3 means it was made by Berger, since taken over by Dulux along with several others. Hope this helps RonR |
