Vintage raleigh 16" bmx bike

Very rare 16” Raleigh bmx child/pit bike. I believe it’s from early 1980’s or possibly late 70’s but I can’t say for sure as I haven’t found another like it through my research, a couple similar pit bike’s but that’s it, I haven’t had any success researching serial number either. If you have more knowledge and information about it I would love the input! Bike is all original and in great condition for it’s age. It needs some cleaning and tightening up but very little, the front axle bearings are loose but seem to be fine otherwise, all bearings should be cleaned up and greased but and it is rideable as it is. It has three piece crankset, this bike is in my storage so I only see it once in a while so I can say tires have been holding air for months now, since the first time I aired them up. This bike will be partially disassembled for shipping purposes, handlebars, front wheel, pedals. Again, if anyone can tell me more about this bike that would be greatly appreciated, thanks much !
