    Thanks for that HK1837, but the tags did come off the same car. They are the only Monaro tags that I have removed, only because I kept being hassled by a bloke that wanted it, so I pulled off the tags, ground the firewall number out and chopped the roof off before dumping it. Both tags had been painted black on the car. It was a 327 GTS drag car that I purchased around 1985. It was totally lightened with perspex windows and a wild light blue/ big fleck dark purple paint job. I still have the big rear fiberglass spoiler behind my garage. I'll try to remove the paint at some stage and scan them for you ( I have had trouble uploading photos though). As for keeping them, I have enough crap in my shed and I'm trying to lighten my load. I might put them on ebay and see what someone will pay for them, I just sold a set of rusty, moldy seat belts for a LC Torana for $61, I was going to chuck them out.

    Hmm, will get back. Might be a split plant car. Isn't a GTS327 though, just a Monaro.

    Did you keep the bit of firewall with the chassis number on it?

    Can you remember where the body tag was? Firewall (directly above the chassis number) or up on the cowl?

    Shame you cut the shell up. I have to cut up a really good early HK Monaro shell for its early ridged windscreen pillars. My Warwick yellow GTS327's pillars were damaged when it was a speedway car (when they put the mesh in the windscreen hole).
