Bill,
I have no idea what the commission number was and not having lived in
Lincoln for so many years I don't know anyone in a working capacity that
could help me track down the sort of information required.
Insurance was handled through my dad and he passed away a number of years
ago. Basically I've not been able to think of anyone I could contact in
Lincoln that might be able to help.
I realize the odds are really stacked against me but figured what the heck,
maybe someone will remember a bright yellow Spitfire in Lincoln back in the
late 70s early 80s.
Thanks,
Brad
