BRC 900 Mystery - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I have nearly finished restoring one of the popular Ferguson 3629 "Personal"
sets. Results are excellent but I noticed the label affixed to the chassis reads
Ferguson 3625. This label is for the different TV-Radio version of the 900
chassis, although all the original wiring is obviously for this 11" set, and
has not been altered. Could this be a factory error ?

Likely to be an error if part of the 9 hasn't faded to resemble a 5?
