Default Re: Opinions on Stampings

The rusty L78 I posted a picture of had been sitting outside in Rochester NY since 1975. It was by far one of the worse condition cars I have ever seen. However... The vin stamp next to the oil filter was clear as day, even the paint held up quite well on it. Most we see are like what others have mentioned, very light. Unfortunately Bob took a photo of it and has probably tossed it by now. When the motor comes back from the machine shop I can get better photos of both stampings for you.

Was your engine rebuilt at all? Usually the bellousing would have some orange overspray on it from the factory. Don't take my word for it though as I am not very certain. The car I have posted about lost it's original tranny long ago.
