1970 K20 Z62 Full Restoration

[IronCanine]

Well I hope everyone had a nice Christmas. The girls and I have logged a fair few miles over the holidays. In fact I'm posting this from a hotel room.

But, Thank God for Eric. The work continues. He has started the tedious job of cramming all that stuff under the dash. But not before the ol VIN plate got pinned back up. 1970 used three different styles of VIN plates beginning with the two plate 69 style and ending with what you all are familiar with on 71s and 72s. This being a very late 70...it got the 71/72 printed style. I spent a lot of time thinking about ways to restore that plate. The older unprinted versions are nice, because all you have to do is polish them. I've resigned to the fact that any attempt to improve the appearance of this was statistically more likely to make it worse in some way, so it got a bath and nothing more. It's in C+ condition and I'm ok with that.
