I don't have the rear cover with date.Maybe customer can look. On side
of chassis box there's a square sticker: MR'S  25-03-99  2DO TURNO.
ser# 912641268L. Customer just said sticker on rear says made in March,
1999.
On the dead/fuse blows issue I will start with a new main reg Q14101
(237469) and see,tho it seems OK.
