dsl ◊ 2018-03-26 18:43	Reused here where slight confusion existed dsl wrote Swithered around for a bit trying to work this one out. Wingline in smooth curve = RMB or RMF; RMA/RME had distinct change in profile at front of front door. First thought was plate = LWV 143 but that is early 55 so too late for RMF; LWY = early 53 so matches, but should have double bumper plate surround after Sept 51 RMB and all RMF, so assuming this has been lost/removed. Nothing new to add now, apart from excluding RMB after Oct 53 as it got revised "helmet" front wings and partly covered rear wheels.
