Hi denbo, 03894 was NEVER ISSUED and the frame number you give is a CASTING NUMBER, WALK AWAY FROM IT.

Roy thank you for the help and the info I knew there was a reason why it was so hard to check out those serial numbers.

Roy one thing I forgot to mention was that it does come with a title with those numbers on it.
