[AJD] late B

[Dean VP]

Bill:

It is interesting how serial number lists vary depending on author. JR Hobbs
lists the model year/serial number breaks as follows (See second # per year
below):
It would be very helful to us collectors if we could get those who publish
these serial number lists to define their reference as Model Year, like JR
does, vs calendar year vs production year. It sure causes a lot of
confusion.

Yep, that makes it a '51, Ron;.  Parts should be plenty available.  Got one 
up this way about like it I may have a chance to pick up, the guy just died 
a couple of months ago so there will probably be an estate sale.

Confusion is a higher state of knowledge than ignorance.
