We should have made the frame out of chalk.

Yes, sad to see that. I figure maybe post the VIN in case it shows up again in 1 form or another.


VIN 242177G120851

Yes - rosette rivets on the VIN tag started during the '65 model year.

I went back to ebay and enlarged the pic there and they are definitely round head hardware store rivets. There is a shadow around the lower one from a larger rivet in the past too, which almost indicates this isn't the first time this tag has been painted over and then removed. The rosette rivet heads are rather small compared to that paint line.
