    ok will check as soon as I can.
    Is that the body number of the car, the 3 digits after the part number?

    If it is the body number, I wonder if they assumed it had the body number therefore it had a date by association with the rest of the car, so no point adding it?

    Also all the rear clams were manufactured off site, then a batch would be delivered to the production line, undated and with no body number assigned, and once assigned to a specific car that section was filled in by hand, but not dated as the production process took several weeks - just my thought, not factual.

    I wonder if with the USA F50s they did take more individual pictures, fewer cars easier to do? but also you couldn't pass off a Euro spec car as a USA spec car - as the obvious difference is clear in your picture - the orange lights versus clear on the euro spec, plus the reflector just before the wheel arch.

    I will post some pictures later of two Euro spec cars, far far apart on the build list, but the pictures being obviously the same day.

    The blue dot on the wheel is in the same position on FCD's car from post 2154 above - this has to be the same car, now proven to be in three individual build books, probability that a different car rolled into the inspection room with the dot in the same place? come on there must be a mathematician amongst us that can work that out?.

    Conclusion - they made a small effort by taking multiple shots of the same car over perhaps an hour, and passed it off to the new owners as being their individual car.

    Cheeky but brilliant fun finding this out

    you agree?

    Yeah I’ve seen the GTO system just for £60k for the full system it feels expensive not being original! I’d be happy to by it bit by bit if they come up

    I’ve attached some pictures of GTO’s system for those interested- Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
