My Marsland chassis has "MARSLAND CHASSIS" stamped into the battery support (prior to galvanizing so it is a little difficult to see).

Does the seller have the receipt or know where and when he bought it? That might give you someone to call and talk to about it.
Marsland made basically one chassis, a one size fits all. Think it was mostly SIII in terms of bracketry.
Richards makes series specific chassis as far as I know. So, if you can ID the front frame horns, parking brake brackets, rear tub brackets that might point you in the right direction. For example, if the chassis has SII rear tub mounts then chances are it's a Richards or an original that has been galvanized.

Hey Rob! hows it going? my RRC is off the road right now for "upgrades" :) would love to go though

i found some guy selling a roller with a galvy chassis and he said he bought it from someone else so he is unsure of when and where the chassis was bought. im still waiting on pictures so i will ask for those having to do with the mentioned brackets

I'm guessing it's a Marsland.
