Check the downloads section. Unfortunately, not enough people take the time to fill out the survey and return it to Wes for him to keep it updated, so there are alot of gaps in the data. _________________ Matt

i have the mounting plate for the dash, it has a couple of direction for use plates on it. the upper left, upper right and the main id tags are gone. Are there replacements?
There's no way of guessing why, where and how those plates on the dash vanished without talking to the owner who had it when they vanished.
You have two choices if you want to sort out the dash plates.
1-Go back through the prior owners and see if they can find them.
2-Buy replacements and have the new lower right serial plate you get stamped with the serial to match the tub's patent plate. _________________ Wes K
