'61 Hardtop

[Ray Hoctor]

On my '61 hardtop restoration, the date stamp should be dated Nov. '60, but what should it look like? 1160? or 11-60, 116, 11/60? That is the question. From experience from the the field, what is the proper stamping based on orginal stamping. Should be the same on '58 thru '62? Glassworks will stamp it anyway I want and because of variations they have observed, they are leaving it up to me.
Anyone got a hardtop sitting in their garage they can look at?
Thanks,

Ray Hoctor

Ray,

The TIM & JG is the NCRS Technical Information Manual and Judging Guide. Available from Cincinnati. The glass Glassworks did for my 61 hardtop had the date as 11-60. They never gave me a choice.
