batthink · « **Reply #7 on:** August 21, 2012, 01:02 AM »

the sellar said in the listing that it was 30 years old and was not perfect condition? but can not find any kind of info on the serial number BUT he did say it may be k1080053?
I will just have to wait and see what it is when it turns up in the post, cheers for the intrest and help anyways dudes.

when it turns up i'll give it a buff and get some better pics of it up on here.
