This is the first time this part of the car has been exposed since it was purchased from the dealer. Found this writing...anyone know what it means. Maybe the guy that was assembling my car was on his eighth beer! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

looks like sharpie. If it was factory wouldn't have been a paint pen marker? Maybe it is either way, cool.

That looks like over spray on the headlight wire? It would have to have been apart for that to get there. And if it was painted, it would have to have been written after that?

The over spray was on top of the writing. My buddies at Maaco in San Jose painted the car with the lights still in it. I have had this car since it was new, never had a light problem and did just about all of the maintenance as a starving student. I found the writing after i steel brushed away the over spray. It does look like a sharpie though and they were not around in 74.
