Hi Members. Looked at a 67 convertible yesterday, and only took a few photos of the engine pad. I didn't see the large stamped #s above the VIN until I got home, and viewed them on my computer.
After cleaning the pad with a rag and lacquer thinner, the broach marks looked fine to me, as I am guessing not too many people would probably stamp a 300hp car. After I arrived home, I found these larger #s stamped above the VIN area, which I am not sure what they are.
Could they be from a Machine Shop when they rebuilt the motor, or just a re-stamp gone bad? I have personally never seen anything like this before, and would enjoy the opinion from the more experienced members on this board.
Thank you for your time,
Steve
