The only place they were stamped was between the Bumper and Radiator on the driver's side fork...

Maybe painted on the side of the body or hood depending on the unit it was assigned to... this means lots of wet hand sanding with 400 grit...

Was not placed anywhere else to my knowledge...

Do you have a serial number on the dash plates, you can get close if you have that...

Hope this helps...

Hi my M38CDN had steel welded on top of the CAR number also. I used a dremel cutting wheel (actually quite a few) to cut the welds and remove the metal the number was underneath and luckily not damaged.

:D
