I think that is supposed to go wherever the car goes. Can't have one without the other. Looks like its sitting on a piece of cardboard.

Lol... Nope. There's a difference. Not obvious to the untrained eye but it's there.

 

[Rruuff Day]

Now that you have a following on this 1 Bad, you better tell the obvious difference...

Torked to my cuzzin an he said "Dummy! Look on the back of the pitcher for the date - 1958 - 1960 is 348 4 sure, 61 cood be eether 348 or 409, an 1962 to 1965 shood be 409 - hwever it might be a 427 dog that 7 litter also dubbl U" Now there is a trained eye!

lol... The back of the picture tells you nothing. I had an 85 Chev pickup that I dropped a built 327 into.... Gotta recognize the engine difference...348 dipstick was on the drivers side of the engine. 409 W was on the passenger side. No dipstick in the picture.... Easy breezy.... I guess they could have changed oil pans as they were interchangeable between the two engines but that is a stretch...... experienced eye....

Thanks for the million dollar answer - I'll know not to pull Rruuff's leg in the future. lol

Change the subject. Before and after.

Like most men, I only think I know everything....My wife has told me numerous times that I am wrong. Therefore, I will concede that my leg can be pulled as easy as anyone.... lol....

ouch. Now that's a damn shame...

For certain that is not going to buff out. Hope they survived it, that is a very hard hit on an automobile that lacks current safety standards. Geez hard to look at.

Interesting @1 BAD 9T9 is that I posted that assembly line shot a long long time ago. XFIRE made some comment about about the number of people installing the bumper and had a picture of him installing the bumper on his 58 all by himself.

Great pic!
