Any before 1934.
Junior cars, 1937 and 1938

But all others are more than welcome.

Of particular interest on the 37/38 junior cars is whether the thief-proof number is enclosed between a set of triangles, a bit like <1234567>..........


Dave,

Meant to do this when you first posted this request some little time ago. But here we are now and I'll do a separate post for each car.

First up - Wade's '34

Wade only has the two body plates at the workshop, the body being on the other side of Sydney and when I see it I'll update with the thief-proof number. The story here on the two plates is that Wade is restoring a '34 and the body was burnt while in the body/paint shop a couple of years ago. He found a replacement body in the US and that body is now in the body/paint shop waiting to be painted.

Original Plate 716 - 446
Replacement 716 - 143

The thief-proof number to come will be for 716 - 143.

EDIT - Note the 716 - 446 plate doesn't have the dealers name or date stamp but it was delivered through Kellow-Faulkner in Melbourne.
