The frame looks like it might have been restamped at some point...Ian
I agree with you Ian. The framenumber has been restamped. Look at the '9' that is definitely not a type of fond used during the war. You can also see that there is a different shade of green paint in the area of the framenumber, probably to mask the work which was done to remove the old framenumber.
The bike looks nice though, a bit of a mix of early and later M20 parts.
