They're a DB 990. There were three versions of the 990 Implematic. The first one had two 6v batteries by the seat. The second version had one 12v battery and it was in front of the radiator. The third version was the ones made after they started selling them in the brown and white color scheme in the US. Those last ones had the free standing fenders and no cross box under the seat.
Supposedly all of the Oliver 600s were the first version according to an article written back in 2005. The last serial number was believed to be 453700 and were all supposed to have had the batteries by the seat. This one has the battery up front and is serial number 460263. Nelson La Count keeps a serial number registry on the 500s and 600s. He said of the 25 on the registry, only 11 have the numbers below 453700. Nine of them have 460- numbers and two even have 462- numbers.
The deal between Oliver and DB ended in April 1963. Peter Williams, the DB guru in the UK, said that was the same month that they went to the second version with the 12v battery up front. As far as anybody can tell now, they ran off some of those second version 990s to finish out an order. Most of them with that 460 number seem to be pretty close together, but those two with 462 numbers are still a mystery.
