I didn't know you could get the build date off that

The sticker for the motor build date is on a silver box under the degauss bottle its white I believe.

The sticker for the body build date is on the door.

I think from reading that it's the final build date I guess when batteries and all are hooked up. Is there a wise MERLIN out there to answer this question??

I entered SEAF in the "[ <A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexidecimal"><ACRONYM title=Hexidecimal>HEX</ACRONYM>]" box at the web site (link below). I hit decode and then read the output in the "[ DEC / CHAR ]" box. The output was "234 15". I am taking a WAG and saying the manufacture date was the 234th day of the year which is August 26th (non-leap year).

TRANSLATOR, BINARY

Again - This is all a WAG since I can't figure out what the "15" means.

Maybe someone who knows will come across this and provide the real answer ........................
