  Hey Chaps.
  My BN4 project is progressing fairly well with the chassis frame
  straightened and painted, a lot of the running gear refurbished and ready
to
  fit, and the engine and gearbox fully rebuilt.  The latter was probably a
  bit premature as it will be at least a year before I get to install and
fire
  up the engine.  However it is cling-film wrapped in a heated garage so it
  shouldn't come to any harm.  The wind and rain has set in with a vengeance
  here in the south UK so I will have lots of opportunity to start assembling
  some of these parts.

  Get to the point Bromfield - stop waffling man!!

  OK, so my question - the engine is numbered 1C/35805 but you would never
  know any more as the aluminium (aluminum ;^)) tag got eaten somehow.  I
plan
  to engrave the number into the block using a small dremel bit, but it would
  be really nice if I could get a reproduction plate made with the embossed
  numbers from the reverse side.

  Any ideas who might be able to make one up?  Freight costs are going to be
  next to nothing, so anywhere in the world would be good for me.

  Cheers.....
