The casting date on the Stephens car seems correct. I know of one Bee that has similar casting dates of May and June. You can slide the Stephen car into a guess build date if you have enough build information from the 1969 9A plant the A12s were all built at. But even then things happen and this is not an exact science from the information known. It is like a car I own that did not go into production until at least 9 days after it was scheduled to be built.The information comes from after looking at its fender tag build date and then its door sticker.

Anyone would like to know about this Bee Ask Ted Stephens at Carlisle.
