Geo,
My TR4's BMHIT certificate had the body number listed. I won't even begin to
speculate as to why yours did not, but I would have my money on there being
a link between the large gap between body and commission numbers. My other
bet is on there being something to do with the car being sold new in Hawaii,
perhaps it was a 'special order' of some sort and did not take the standard
route down the production line???
FWIW my TR4's engine number is CT/23332 E and its body number is 24165/CT.
Your engine number is not far from mine but your Commission number is far
different (mine is CT/23641 O).
Cheers,
Michael
