Re: trim tag 1965 corvette

Here is that section the tag from my Smith Body 65...Owned for almost 40 years.

The "H" is not directly over the "M". Is this what you guys are talking about? It was kind of hard to make out in Jim's picture.



I'm not too crazy about the look of the rivets in the first post either. Maybe that just me.

Yours is exactly what I was trying to post. Your much clearer pic. shows how the real tags were stamped. Thanks.

Although this is a '67', it does show the positions of the letters discussed.

Re: trim tag 1965 corvette

The "H" centered under the "M" is a dead give away that it's not an original trim tag. There are also several other indicators that it's not original. If you compare it side by side to a known original, the variations are obvious.

What "H under the M"?

What "H under the M"?

This "H under the M". The H is offset to the right a little bit. Or I should say is narrower...It's proportional font as apposed to a monospace font. Characters like the letter O or M is wider than an H or I.

Examples:
MONO SPACE
PROPORTIONAL SPACE

Oh, yes can you make it now the pain is gone?
