Different Cowl Markings
 
5 Attachment(s)
I was looking through some pictures for some reassembly and noticed these markings, no grease pencil letters or numbers like normal but I think the word (white) was written there at the time of red primer and has a stamped 3 digit number on the upper edge or the cowl. That number 675 is on the transfer case and the gas tank. Has anyone saw this type before.

675 looks like the last three digits of the build sequence number to me (like "123675", or whatever). I have seen that before.

"White" would be a heads up to the painter so that he would know what color was coming up next.

Here are some of the threads I have accumulated that have to deal with graffiti, assembly line marking and grease pencil markings (if you are interested):

Thanks guys, Keith interesting stuff on markings, mine must be a sequence number no vin or order number match.

jaros44sr. for our trucks, maybe they ran out of grease pencils.
