It now wears KA-TZ-770, so I guess that means abroad.
It was actually supplied in a sort of poo brown which for some reason I specified. I sprayed it with, from memory, a period Datsun cream when building it as I decided the brown wasn't attractive with black wings (which although supplied black, looked better in paint), and the final effect was much more to my liking with a red interior. I certainly don't recall anything about numbering, don't believe I even knew they had one! The only thing that I regret with that build was not fitting an Ulster exhaust and intake system (economics)!), it was running a standard 1930 engine and transmission from a derelict fabric saloon dragged from a field, but with a later 14mm head, and a replacement chassis as the saloon one was rusted through, plus a C/R 3 speed box.
It would be nice to know it is in good hands.
