1964 Dream?
I just bought a Honda Dream and looking forward to restoring it.<br />Does anyone know how to find out the year it was made? The Pink slip has 0000 Where the year should be.<br />Is it possible to figure out if the motor is original to the frame?<br /><br />The Engine # is CA77E-402.539<br />The Frame # is CA78402471

Yo bro, I got a 64' myself. It has been in the garage for 2 years and I can't remember where the frame number is. Where is yours at? Thanks...J.

mikescottt<br /><br />According to your engine number CA77E-402.539 the 4 after the CA77E indicates a 1964. I can't find a reference to your frame number in Bill Silver's manual.<br /><br />Jhaysun<br /><br />Get a flashlight. Lay on the ground on the left (as if you were sitting on it) of the bike. Look behind (rearwards) the drivers footpeg and the VIN # is stamped on the verical peice of frame. You may have to stare for a minute before you can see it.<br /><br />Ron<br /><br />PS...a pic of my babies.

I found it by laying down on the right side with a flash light ( I thought I picked this advice from one of your earlier responses?) If so thanks, and the frame number is 68 numbers from the Engine number. I guess that makes them a match. I had Bill Silver verify that and also that its a 64. The fact that they were 400 series numbers made it more difficult to find out.

Ron, I found it. Thanks, you saved me some time. I appreciate it man. Now I wont feel like an idoit when I try to get parts for it. Your dream is a real beauty. Mine is black and not as cherry but loved none the less. Thanks again...J.<br /><br /><br />Jhaysun<br /><br />Get a flashlight.
