Someone will probably know but I am not sure that is a correct and/or whole machine no. Yes as Paul said photo!

Hi I have checked the serial number records and your machine was built mid 1967. regards Julan

Martyn Would the OPs 3D have had yellow cab when new? I had an H reg 3C 11 for a while it had round road lights but the work lights were rectangle IIRR. The cab was white but I guess that might have been yellow when new.

That is a nice early 3D 1967 a little underpowered though, i am pretty sure the early models with round lights had fibreglass cabs too, did the machine still have its original Kettle with it? Are you restoring it or is it being put to use.
