That seems to be a 1976 serial number, possibly built in November of '76. Please, post pics before everyone starts banging beer bottles. You will come to understand about that, I'm sure (Message edited by lembic76450 on August 22, 2010) davidjh New Username: davidjh Post Number: 2 Registered: 8-2010 Posted on Monday, August 23, 2010 - 12:05 pm:    My mistake, it is a 76, here are some pics.
