Now proud owner of a RHD -63 Hawk.
It has been restored (of sorts) and runs. Quite a bit of work before rego and road use, though. One annoying problem - I can't find any body or chassis numbers. No vehicle plates anywhere. Not in door openings, not on firewall.
I got the original (so I'm told) engine, not running, never pulled apart. It has engine no V568952 stamped on block (top, LH frt).
The engine fitted comes from a Lark (so I'm told), it has engine no V562676. It runs smoothly and seems OK.
Q1 - Do these engine no's have any meaning other than sequential?
Q2 - Are there any chassis/body no's hard-stamped into metal somewhere? If so, pls advise where I can find.
Thanking you in advance,
/ Hank
