Hi,
    Glasses guide suggests Sept 1961, frame numbers from C15 31801. Sept 1962, frame number from C15 38035.

Best wishes...

Hi,
    You are welcome.

It depends what you want the date for. If spares use 1961, if its for the DVLA ask BSAOC for a dating certificate which will give the exact despatch date which could be 1961 or 62. Albeit DVLA will sometimes ask for proof from a Glass's guide  ::).

Best wishes...

Hi Bess. Once again thank you for all the help and advise.
