Gordon and Eric I posted a picture of the dash plate on my VC1 which will give you an idea of what is stamped on the plate. You can view the plate and other images of my VC1 restoration by going to www.imageevents.com/leonardnettles/vc1dashplate.
Steve Greenberg let me have the original serial plate for my VC3, and I just copied the stamping.
Because most of the printing was long gone I couldn't be sure that all the details printed on it were exactly the same as the early half ton, but the plate was the same size, stamping went in the same boxes, etc, etc.
Anyone know for sure of any differences?
