One of my tags was severely damaged so I just straightened it the best I could
1960-1962 GMC yes , round rivets . 1963-1964 was spot welded on GMC. 1964 they discovered these tags were falling off do to water getting behind them and freezing popping them off. This was mainly on cars of the era, not so much trucks. Then later they started using either rivets in 65 and some a combination has been found of one round and one Rosette .They went to all rosette rivets completely in 1966 . This is GMC only . Chevys were spot welded 60-64 , 65 round and rosette, 66 all rosette . This does have the P in the vin for Pontiac.
Rosette was not used till 1965-1966
