HBJ8L/30713. Probably built in January, 1965 since all cars from 30696 through 30970 for which a build date is recorded in the BJ8 registry were built in January 1965. The configuration of the lights (or anything else on these cars) is not a reliable guide to the build date. The light configuration is based on the body number and not the chassis number. The cars were actually assembled neither in strict body nor chassis number sequence, so build date and configuration frequently bear little relation to each other except in a very general way.
