Image The add said 1965. But i Don't think they started til 1966. I don't have the ownership yet, but i'm working on it.
My first question is the leg shield. Was there only one type? were all the years the same?

Cheers

Looks to be in half decent condition. A good find I reckon. :)

After a bunch of reading and searching I believe I have a CM91A. Never thought to read the vin. it CM91A148xxx. The A in the VIN I read is for the Canadian market.
