Can anyone shed some light as to whether I should have the smooth-faced
letters or ribbed letters on my '58? The Moss catalog gives the
changeover
as 'uncertain' while the TRA Judging Guide gives Comm #50000 as the
change
point.
The PO had filled the holes, of course I have no way to be sure this is
even
the original front apron for the car.

So there's no evidence at all of the holes? The PO must have brazed or
welded them up very nicely, then. ;-)
I must respectfully disagree with the TRA Judging Guide if that's what
it says. I know for certain that TS71909L (built 3/28/60) has ribbed
letters as original. TS73624L probably did as well, but it has a
replacement apron with no holes at all.
