Members,I wanted to post these pics for your examination. I am in the process of restoring my 67 & once the body was removed these two "DECALS" stuck out like a sore thumb. I realize the JM says the main driveshaft has a orange & green dab of inspection paint approx 8" from the rear universal. Well, these are almost exactly 8" from the back as well ,but they are in no way paint dabs.
They go all the way around except where they wore heavily from time & the elements. Both are exactly 1/2" wide & the black that you see underneath the color is black adhesive from the tape. When you look at these closely, you also see the edges of the TAPE curling up. This is a relatively early car (Dec 3rd 66) One might argue that these were placed on later in the cars life , but this car has never been seen ( with the exception of my Friends Jim Gessner & Bill Caldwell) as it was parked in a garage in 1983 & sat there until May of 2016. The following are some of the 100's of pics I have taken documenting this restoration. The shaft is at the media blaster now, however I decided to protect these lines with tape to preserve them for judging down the road & for members to see for themselves. Perhaps an addendum to future Judging manuals. I have a few extra pics if you would like to see them. Appreciate your thoughts.
