Hi All,

Just wanted to pick your collective brain...

This is the engine number from the little donk in my 61.

Just hoping some one could shed some light on how old it is.

8Y/U/H3186

I had a `61 850, it had 8AM/U/H prefix.
Your 8Y motor is an Oz built one, my guess would be 1964-65.

I knew it was an oz 850, mine has a 62 wiper motor but everything else points to 61.

6/61 on horn button, blinker unit, glass.

Bit of an "ongoing" resto I guess.
