The common history of chassis nos. UK3286 and RC43:
"DMX 419 (RC43) was purchased by my grandfather in 1968. Upon close inspection he discovered it had a replacement chassis from another car at some time in its life but the log book had remained unaltered. This is all explained in BDC Review 120 page 120.
