Hi Guys,
If I recall correctly mine appeared to be made of Aluminum, it definately has NOT been removed from the body, and is located on the passengers side of the body in about the same location as your. Perhaps this was a Canadian only thing? The only photo I could find on the PC of this is attached below, really only shows the location of the tag, can barely make out it's silvery color. If the car were not currently tucked into the corner of the garage I'd go take a photo, but I haven't had time to move stuff around yet, having just spent my 9 day vacation working on the garage.
I was working on pouring a new 6" floor in half of the garage and pouring a massive comcrete base for a two post hoist and 725 ft of tubing for in floor heating, only after breaking up the old 3" slab and hauling over 200 wheelbarrows of rubble and dirt over the back hill.... needless to say work is now feeling like a vacation!
Also of interest I was sent an article by a fellow I met a few months ago at an antique car show/flea market in Sussex NB. Bill Snowden owns a 1927 Dodge, and after restoring it drove the car from NB to the west coast, down into the US and back again! The article he sent me is in two parts from the March and April 1977 Issuse of Cars & Parts. Not sure if I want to post it here due to copywright laws and such, but it details the beginings of Plymouth and the 28Q-29U as well it has photos of the cars and inside the plants of the production line. He also included a list of production numbers for Canadian Cars, which if I read it correctly puts mine nearer the end of first year production. [ GP349R ]
