Yes you are right, the green parts book has the compliance plate with 3/70 build. Interestingly the yellow book does not. Does it appear in the workshop manual? So we might owe him an appolagy, however a little investigating shows that ther are several Edited by user Saturday, 28 March 2009 8:07:21 AM(UTC)

AHQ, BHQ etc is the prefix of the HQ chassis number. First lot were AHQ, B designates an ADR revision. HQ had AHQ - EHQ.

I then agree with DA.B, Alchupanibre deserves an apology (and I apologise for my statement). I would have bet money that all pre 1971 HQs ended up as scrap!

I know that some of the 48-215 pilot cars were sold to the public,
