Serial number 520-00010. I've reduced the size more than required. Test to see if you need to scroll for a stable image.
After seeing preview, I see I can no longer read the serial number, but did eliminate some scrolling.

I remember seeing those in Tulsa on display the first year I attended. If I remember correctly they won their class. Does not get much better than those two Old Models. Looks like they have all the Type 1 features too.

Don,
Do you have the build/ship date on these? Just curious. Thanks for showing them.
