About 8" long and looks like a water trough. and then there is the larger one on 1970 ECS cars. Then there is another larger one on 1971 cars, shaped slightly different but it attaches and it's purpose is the same as the 70 version. This is the 1970 only version of the main shield. I don't think I have the smaller trough looking one. I know someone was repoping both versions of the larger one at one time, but I've not seen anything in a couple years on them. 6428554-100_0715.JPG (124 downloads)

By redwrydr at 2011-01-19 I'm looking at this on crappy laptop in an airport but, do I see n42 & &n95 on there with no n97? Dual tips & CA required only n95, and no n97, also mandatory in CA noise reduction? I may have those codes wrong, sorry if I do but that's what I remember them to be.

The fonts are different......The font on the green car are different than the blue fender tag. The fender tag on my car is exactly the same font as the blue fender tag. My fender tag looks old and the back side has the very old faded gomango color overspray on it. Havent I read before that there were different fonts on the LA cars?
