Ah, the joys (and pitfalls) of casting and plate numbers. Now that's one supersession list I've never been able put my hands on. The only one of this kind I have is one I've manually built over the past decade or so and it is so incomplete, lotta "holes".

Thanks for the post back. Neat page, be nice if I could read it :-)
