Title: bradma plate
Post by: gnj588d on June 03, 2013, 20:00:31

Had my 1965 230 for 16 yrs , it came with the original service wallet and books wheel changing instructions etc. the service book has a transparent plastic cover and a pocket for
the Bradma Plate which is made of metal it has the owners and the cars details embossed in it. I think the plate was for embossing info on to invoices? it says on the plastic cover beside the pocket PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT A CREDIT CARD ? cannot seem to find much info about this item,did all new pagodas come with it. Cheers. Mike.

This is a plate used when the car came in for service with the owner information, car information, etc. This was similar to the old style credit card set up where an embossed plate was used to capture the information from your credit card. These were in the owner information set up and in the clear plastic holder for the maintenance work history. It was part of the original owner set of information. It is mentioned in Pagoda Notes, and will be part of an update article in a follow on issue of Pagoda World.
