Hi guys. I already read the history of the Bradley production, and looking at some pictures around here, I guess my Bradley GT is maybe from 1973-1974.
I read that there are very few changes from year to year, if any.
I would love if someone help me to identify from what year is my model. what are the distinctive features, if there is a number or year imprinted in some place, etc.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, again, Ricki,
No way of telling the exact year since the serial numbers have no relation to anything, and the cars are most often retitled as whatever year the project was completed (reconstructed title).
The only thing I can help you with is 1976 or later, and 1975 or earlier.
Look at your engine lid. If the license plate light is mounted on a rib below the plate and aiming up, your car is 1975 or earlier.
If the license plate is mounted inside the same recess as the plate, and positioned above the plate and aiming down, your car is 1976 or newer.
Of course, if the original owner replaced the engine lid at some point, all bets are off.
That should help. There are other little bits, but all for 1975 or earlier, and 1976 or later. The license light is the easiest identifier.
Warmest regards,
|

Thank you Jeff, I already check. The license plate light seems to be on a rib below the plate, so probably my model is 1975 or earlier. But the licence plate also got two other lights on both of sides, I don't now if is a modification.
Thank you again, talk to you later,
have a nice day;
riki.

That's exactly what my car have! So they are reverse lights...haha.
I see that your Bradley is 1976 or newer (I am already learning). Mine is definetely of the older type, unless they change the engine lid, as you pointed out.
Well, I'll be posting photos soon,
and I confesed that I am pretty excited about starting to work on the Bradley....yeah!
Talk to you later,
have a nice day;
riki.

Hi Riki, you live in a part of the country where every neighborhood or village has at least three welding-fabricators. If you down load a picture from this website and print it out then take it to one of the welders/gate makers near you and say that you want 4 of them you'll have just what you want and a great experience to go along with it!
all the best!

Three welding fabricators, 20 banana trees, and at least 10 drug dealers!
Just kidding, man, but great suggestion.
That's exactly what I am going to do.
Have a nice day;
riki.
