BSA WC-11

Hi

I found a bottom end for a WC-11 BSA stamped WC11-588. Gearbox plates are attached and has green paint so presumably War Department?. Does anybody out there have some details as to date of manufacture, numbers made, production span etc.?

Kind regards

Francois

This is what I can find in the factory ledgers. Not all to easy to read so I might not have it all right.

I think it is common knowledge that only 530 C11's were issued as WD bikes and supplied to the India Office in 1940. As far as I know, none have survived? The Engine numbers are WC11 4001- WC11 4531. Ron
