Guys I'm looking at a 1943 Remington Rand with a Du-lite finish, everything seems to appear correct but one thing that I need to confirm is the correct mainspring housing type, on a 1943 in the Clawson guide it says an early Rand would have checkered, late would 8 rib type. Is the 1943 considered to be late or early? Which housing would be correct, cause the 1943 is sporting an 8 rib housing. My gut is saying checkered is correct.

Thanks, David
