Hi All,i am currently carrying out a full body off rebuild of a 1968 herald 1200 conv.The vehicle underwent a rather poor refurb back in the 80/s it was resprayed in black and the interior changed.The commissioning plate was replaced with a poor diy replacement which is unreadable,is there a way i can find out the exact commissioning details as manufactored including trim colour? many thanks Neil

Possibly a bit late, but I was passing anyway.

Do you know about the Heritage Certificates available from the British Motor Museum - https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/archive/heritage-certificates. You give them the commissioning (chassis) number, which will be on the V5 DVLA registration form, and £43 + p&p, and they send you a certificate that tells you trim codes, colour, build date, key numbers, and anything interesting the build records have on the car. They don't go off registration numbers though.
