Old dealership I'd tag
Anyone else ever see a tag like this before mounted on the firewall?

Saw something similar to this tag, but located on the outside of an original
radiator. The car was a 1928 tudor sedan under restoration in Georgia. Bob-A |

Re: Old dealership I'd tag
I had something very similar once. It was a brass tag on the firewall of a late ‘31 parts truck. The tag was for a dealership in Chicago. I sold it at a swap meet, without ever having taken a picture of it.
