Which Date stamps are you after mate?

THe ones on the front wings are (I think) halfway up the seam where it's spot welded to the inner wing - the date code (if I remember right) is the week number and the year, and is accompanied by the Ford badge. The week number should be within the month that the car was built, so June should roughly be week 26 - 29.

There are also date stamps on the bonnet and the tailgate, but don't know where they are.
