Were the blocks, trans, rad. support, and the trunk seal lip all stamped at the same time? I have thought about this before, but never saw anything posted anywhere. You would think this would make sense, because I assumed they would make a "stamp pad" up with the numbers on and slam it into all needing areas at once, then change the next # for the next car and just keep going. Maybe I'm totally wrong also.




No they were not, the body was stamped before it was painted , the engine and trans were in a different part of the plant. They used different fonts for some digits , like the 6 and 1




Yea, I should have thought of that. Old age...
