Where exactly was this no on the engine. The engine no itself on a type 3 is on the right case half, just in front of the fan housing. They follow a
letter/number format eg U0XXXXXX, or T0XXXXXX or similar.
Ain't nothin' like the wind in your hair.

Yep looks about right. Built sometime after 7/67. To find out exactly what date the car was built you need the chassis no. I don't think engines
had unique numbers, but I could be wrong.
