Odd Data Plate
Just acquired 57 project and will have many questions. Here are 2:
1. My data plate located on firewall passenger side engine compartment is plain rectangle blank (no black paint, no lettering) with the correct VIN stamped at the top right center and the following stamped below in the center of the plate
40 FE XL 27M240164P. The data correctly describes the vehicle. But I have no idea what the "P" is at the end. The car was repainted sometime in the past, but the engine compartment appears untouched. Any idea why the plate is a blank metal plate?
2. I'm taking off exterior trim. I can get 4 of the nuts off the posts off the fender hash marks. I believe there are 2 more which appear to be hidden behind a rubber seal at the airintake tubes. How do I get to those remaining post/nuts on the hash tag trim?
