The cars being brought down this week, so I can't verify the engine 
number
at the moment, but the PO said it matched the commision number: 
FC24119...

==AM==
While it's not unheard of, engine numbers almost never "match" 
commission numbers. They're usually several hundred numbers higher. I'm 
just curious as to the engine number given the Mk2 header and radiator 
setup!

Meanwhile, the car looks to be a great basis for restoration; too bad, 
though, about what looks to have been originally a fairly rare wood-rim 
steering wheel, now pretty much sans wood. :-(
