Thought I'd start a new thread with the new gem I just brought home . . . Bantam number 259 .. . pristine condition, a true "barn find" . . . . Not sure what I'm going to do with her yet, but for now at least it is safe, dry and well cared for . . . . I'd like to know more about what I have here, so I hope to stimulate some discussion . . . . I can take and post pictures as requested. I'm waiting for title from the state, so it is just sitting now . . .
-Doug. PS . . . why do all of my pictures come out sideways????? -Doug. |

Doug, would you share a pic of the wiring into the rear of the tail light, and possibly at the tounge area? Thx

Did you ever get a chance to see what the ACM number was?

Hey Low, haven't forgotten about your request for wiring pics ... I took two today . . . I'll upload soon. Not sure it will give you what you want, it looks like it has been modified . . . extra tail lights added and a different plug then should be there, but I'll post anyway. . . .
Art. . . refresh my memory about where to find the ACM number . . . if it is the one found by dismantling the spring perch, then I don't think I'll be able to do that, but if it is somewhere else, easier to get to, then I'll check it out . . . -Doug. |

You still should be able to see parts of the number without any disassembly, Depending upon what digits they are you can sometimes make them out.
