There seems to be some conjecture regarding whether Murray Body tags on 400As (Convertible sedan) and 190A's (Victoria) were rivited or screwed or both.
If you have one of these and it has it's original tag could you post or pm me so that we may be able to reach some consensus. An indication of the body number would also be useful.

Thanks in anticipation

My Victoria (October 1930 engine #), while lacking the original body tag, has holes small enough to accomodate the rivets used with aftermarket body tags. I would think the holes made by sheet metal screws would be too large to later use rivets.
