Zophos1979 ◊ 2008-06-27 16:10	Ah, never trust Wiki... the picture with the round headlights claims 38-40, but the text states the rounds are indeed post war, makes sense, cheaper to manufactur than the hexagonal specimens they used to use before the war -- Last edit: 2008-06-27 16:29:01 (G-MANN)

Zophos1979 ◊ 2008-06-27 16:28	Nope, I misinterpreted something... the headlights being round or hexagonal is determined by post or pre war... -- Last edit: 2008-06-27 16:43:01
G-MANN ◊ 2008-06-27 16:30	It's now been listed as 1948, is this correct? PS. You don't need to quote a comment when your reply is immediately below it (it just wastes space). -- Last edit: 2008-06-27 16:31:12
