Thank you Bob. I was always suspicious of that tag. Apparently it
was the same bloke that drilled a half-inch hole through the tag to
mount the radio, cleverly mounted the antenna to the frame, yes,
underneath the car, with television antenna-lead standoffs to keep
the thing from grounding out. To go to that much trouble to avoid
spoiling the bodywork, and foul the firewall with a hole right through
the id tag . . . ? I guess that's where the "D" comes from in "DPO" huh?
