Well there is a scenario straight away on yours Paul - 2nd gen decals 2nd gen serial 1st gen drop outs = mongoose 1.5 :LolLolLolLol:
Here's Paul's frame for the picture whores ::) ;D :

..........dropouts are 2nd gen, decals are second gen and serial No. G142807 is 2nd gen (and same month serial as paul's ;) )

They are pretty much identical mate - your one is an '83 model which has all of the 3 81 element changes on it mentioned above - dropouts / serial style / decals (once you get the decals that is ;) ) once these changes happened in 81 this style of frame carried on through to the end of it's life in 83 :daumenhoch:
The only difference is that your serial is probably on the box section lip rather than the BB and the box section is channel rather than full box in the case of mine ;)
Ahh yes the box section behind the BB wonder if that changed in 81 as well :-X :LolLolLolLol:
All my 82 frames are channel not box and all my 81's are box :-\ maybe that changed late 81 / early 82 ???
