Restoring a six, and the VIN on the front fender well is obscured by a couple layers of paint over some surface rust. The stamping still look pretty sharp, but it isn’t clear how it was masked. Anyone have pictures of the area that show the details of the original paint?

It could be the same as the four cylinder cars, but I keep finding all sorts of weird little things that are different.

Glen Stazak told me the numbers were stamped after the cars were painted. That is why the paint looks chipped then touched up after.
