I was dissasembling and cleaning some CV's/axles to powder coat and rebuild and thought of you guys when I saw these paint markings. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I also dug up another set to see if this was a fluke, see for yourselves. The first two are from a 73 1.7, no gaurantee BOTH are original to that car, thus the possible reason for the diffe rent colors. The one on the right is very faint but is DEFFINITLY a white paint mark.

Oh good - another mystery paint marking!
Somehow, we've got to find some old timer who worked on the line, so we can find out what these markings meant. Are they worth reproducing? I think the engine tin markings are because they are readily visible. But we still need to know what they mean. For these axle markings, could they be so simple as to indictae right or left? Pat |
