Can anyone work out what year this Deluxe might be? its just a bare shell so no wiper motor to go by.

Type: YMA262

Body number: 26550
Number on radiator shroud: 26062
Engine number 9YA/Ta/H 27490

Paint code is 1/BURGUNDYRED/3 ..... also what does the preceding 1 and the following 3 represent?

Thanks David... care to elaborate on how you came to it being a 67?

GtOgreen based on your info wouldn't that make mine more likely closer to a 68? not that it matters too much.

Thanks guys

Even if you search the passport to service dates it is hard to pinpoint the exact month. Colours and locations can make a cars sale date a month or two different to its brother that came off the production line at the same time.
If you have a spare weekend. Try searching the forum and make up a list. Then take the average.

I wouldn't be to worried even if there was a 4 or 5 month difference between passports to service of similar numbers. The early date may have been preordered and the later one might have been the demo model - or beige
