Oldest known razor?

Post by foxy » 7th February 2011 - 9:09am

Anyone know what the VIN number of the oldest known razor is?

I have a friend in the states who has found what looks to be a very early one.

The type 34 registry has a list, http://www.type34.com/registry/ but it doesn't seem to work for me.
Apart from prototype and pre-production cars in museums, Lee Hedges Replica Cabrolet is #001776.
I think that is the oldest on the road, but there may well be others.

Well if it is that vin number it would have been built around Oct '61. Nice find if it turns out :cool:
