I was replacing the foam and dash vinyl when I realized that the squiggles on the metal were letters in cursive writing. This is just to the left of the instrument area.
 It looks to me like someone in the factory signed the car. Was that at all common? When I put the new foam on, I tried to glue around the letters. |

QUOTE(930cabman @ Jan 19 2024, 01:10 PM)  Must have been Fritz at it again being a carpenter, I have signed quite a bit of my work over the years Yeah. I have done pretty extensive work on our house built in 1921. It can be like seeing ghosts when you find writing or long forgotten styles of wallpaper. Anyone ever found this on a 914 though. My search wasn't very productive. |
