Re: Engine Number to Chassis number request
Thank you Chris.. I thought it maybe your good-self that came to the rescue, No, it's not mine, it's a friend of mine, but it seems that the engine number in the car is GF1183702, but that doesn't seem to be a Jensen number does it?.. do you recognize that sort of sequence Chris or understand the number GF1183702 please?Chris_R wrote:Is that your car then Grant?

Grant, with over 3,000 posts on here isn't it about time you greased Mr.Calver's hand? There may be a few secondhand copies of the first edition available now that the newer and BIGGER version is out there.

Is that actually the book or just a nice picture of proper Jensens? (Those overalls look ‘awfully’ clean Grant, they look like they could do with a good oiling, I always keep mine well-oiled).

Hello John.. I have 3 pairs and wash them everyday in my barn washing machie@60deg after wearing them that day, I wear nutrile gloves on and off all day and still wash my hands at regular intervals John, I've been to seek help and they look at me as if I am a looney, I always promptly leave the room knowing that they are the looneys, I then drew this picture or sketch John to express my feelings of these head doctors >>>jglarkin wrote:Is that actually the book or just a nice picture of proper Jensens?
