Hi he had made a mistake with the frame number, the army contact number has been put down as the frame number on the old 1948 logbook, not the correct frame number, there is a frame number on the headstock and a different number on the downtube ?
Well, there was the framenumber in the pictures, never checked it with the log book, I could hardly read the works number on the frame, anyone got better pictures?
...and the old buff logbook for JOD 132. Interestingly, it doesn't state 'Ex-Government' and appears to have been registered as new in 1948. Was that just a lazy clerk, or was there an official refurbishment scheme ?
