Hi Jordan.

That number find is interesting. Very possibly a form of 'Production Control Number' applied by Hamilton bridge to track their work flow and allow them to identify the scope of any manufacturing problems that came to light on the line.

Be interesting to find a similar applied number on the core, armoured body assembly of your Otter and see how far off it might be from the actual Serial Number assigned to the completed vehicle.

Marconi was using a similar number system on all the chassis units for the various main 52-Set components, and similar number systems also showed up on major sub-assemblies they had contracted out to other manufacturers.

Keep up the good work!


David
