Can someone supply me with a picture of their engine ID plate? You can block out the numbers, if that's a concern. Mine was removed and lost when the engine was torn down, and I'd like to see the style of numbers, shape, etc. I wrote down my number, so at least there's that, but would like to see an original, so I can reproduce as faithfully as possible.

It's for an MGB

Mickey,

I sent a picture of my ID plate to your e-mail address since I don't know how to post a picture on this forum.

Mickey --

Save yourself some work and just order one from Clarke Spares & Restorations. $24 for an engine ID plate that looks correct, with embossed (raised) letters and numbers.

Check out his website: Clarkes Spares & Restorations

(Ordering one for my B is on my list of things to do this winter...)
