One more question(for now)

Posted March 12, 201312 yr

comment_417615

Hey everyone...Hope everybody is doing good!I have a question/puzzle.I'm going to be rebuilding my engine soon,and along with that,I'll be repraying my engine bay.Yesterday as I was looking,I noticed a "45" painted on the bracket of the hood latch "reciever".Can anybody shed some light on the significance of this number?Should I save it when the engine bay gets painted...or is it of no importance?Any feed back would be welcomed.Thanks....Tim

Doesn't mean anything that I know of. It looks the kind of thing a bone yard would paint on a part.

I know my Z didn't come from a wrecking yard....far from it! And the bracket looks original to me.

No offense meant, but I've never seen any number like that painted onto a Z.

Never at an auction...2 previous owners only.
