    POP QUESTION

    Hi guys.....I need help concerning my protecto plate...the pop that I have with my car has the vin # on it and a few other numbers however it does not have the original owners name on it. I am sure this is the original pop...very old with the original dealership printed on it on the opposite page...no doubt about that....just never saw a pop without the owners name on it...please pass me your thoughts on this...thank you very much, Marc /Calif

    The dealer just forgot to type are write the owners name on it. That is all. I would think that is quite common. I suppose you could do it if you know his/her name?

      I was thinking of the folder, but maybe they ran out of tape? any thing could happen in smaller dealer ships in the old days, and today for that matter.

        I have the original Protecto plate with warranty booklet on one of my '71's. The tape used was not the GM logo tape to print owners information of metal plate. I believed that many small dealerships used whatever was available to them at the time.

          I don't know about "many," but my POP has common "Dymo" tape as well -- of course having my name there (even though the address has changed) helps to authenticate the thing.

            There is a good chance that it was a replacement issued to a second owner within the original warranty period. Does it have all the rear axle, carb., engine info., transmission info., etc info on it or just a VIN.??

              Mine has clear, non-GM logo dymo on it as well. This always concerned me until I recently saw a Chevelle SS on flea-bay that retained it's original P-O-P from the same selling dealer and it had blue Dymo tape. The dealer address stamp was identical to mine so I am somewhat reassured. If I had the space and funds I'd have bought that Chevelle to reunite it with its older cousin

                Marc,

                What is on the reverse side of the warantee booklet where the POP imprint should be?
