Hello all,
Having a discussion related to the LEFT AXLE number/lettering on the early HD Wishbone frames. A 1948 BT frame has XE 7 followed by a hallmark and the number 8 at the LEFT AXLE PLATE. The 8 may be that frames DATE CODE (?)....
I was informed by an "old timer" (in the most respectable of moniker's!) that you can "date" a wishbone frame from these markings.
Can anybody add to this? Is this true? It would be most appreciated if anyone can contribute to this understanding. ANY INFO ON THIS?
Thank you in advance.
Jim
