Paint OK P decal placement
« on: May 02, 2017, 06:59:49 AM »
Hi guys, guess where was the correct place for the P paint OK decal for my SJ 66 200.

Thanks,

Josep

'66 San Jose cars didn't have those.

Short answer = No where as Charles stated

Just to be clear 64-66 San Jose used no stick on inspection stickers that were installed at the assembly plant and were left on the car after predelivery clean up except for the battery one.

Didn't San Jose use a Paint OK stamp or Paint and a number identifying the inspector.
I have a picture from a magazine of a 65 Shelby GT350 which have a stamp saying Paint 80.

Correct.

That Paint 80 is a very odd/rare combination. Only found it once or twice out of maybe a thousand 65 San Jose examples. There are a couple of different sizes used during 65-66 applied in one of three colors used though yellow was the most often used by a long shot IMHO

San Jose didn't indicate all the different inspections individually on the final body like what was done on early Dearborn and NJ cars
