The unique Game number is stamped on the plate on the firewall in front of the gearstick.

Cheers,

Thanks Tim !!:)
I really like this Game.
Very original car throughout.
Paintwork is remarkably good and original.
Engine runs okay, but will need a set of oil rings,
which l will do later this year.
Will not take much for a roady other than some rust
issues in the rear cross member.
I will have try to sort another cross member from a wreck.

Just curious too Juddy, which book was this?

So I believe they may have started at 100 rather than 0 and that less than 200 actually were made. There doesn't seem to be anyone who can answer that for sure though.

Well that is the highest I have seen, mine and Mick's are 5&6/78 numbered 282 and 288.

I wonder if the wheels were original even though they are not the usual 10 spoke as they may have run out of the right ones.

Cheers,

Tim.
