Hi Clive
I don’t know what was there but if you’re looking for the serial number it’s on the lower right hull side on mine.

Hi Clive
I believe there may have been 50 made, it would be interesting to see who has the highest serial number.

Steve

As I see it someone filed the lip back a bit and filled in the holes. Sadly you missed all the fun putting the deck panels together. :lol:

Some say a limited edition is limited to the people who want them. :D not sure that Armortek would do that, it would be pretty obvious after a while if they did. Especially with the single Batch models like the M26, Hertzer and the M3 Grant etc.

Amortek will have ordered more parts, castings etc than the fifty kits initially produced for the first batch.
5% to 10% extra would not be an extreme amount to cover any faulty delivered or lost parts.

The 50 kits were, we were told sold out in just over three weeks so there was very little time to think about pulling the trigger.
I thought i saw somewhere someone quoted they'd got fifty something, but it might have been a typo. Though some Chieftain models were built to order so some customers may not have bothered to check their certificate number, especially the statics.
So I'm guessing 55+ units, maybe. :lol:

This is No 32 over and out.
