|
|
I am doing my best to come up with the correct M-code plate based on my birth cert for my 66 Bus. I was told that there is an error in my M-codes but not sure if thats because they should be in a certain order, or if I truly made a bigger mistake. The bus is a true Kombi, and originally all light gray paint, top and bottom, with mesh gray interior. Any help fixing this would be appreciated! Hers what I have:
03**3******************

I think 3rd line should be 425 first, as Everett mentioned... then the rest of that line in increasing value. Yours should look similar to this one:
A longer list of codes would carry on... up to the second line. This is from a '74, so it's got some differences from yours... but you'll see what I mean.

| Excellent, thanks guys. So Im assuming 002 should be after 425, and then go up in numerical order. Im getting a plate made and want it to be correct but the guy making it said there were errors and I didnt feel like spending a "set-up" fee. We're all here for each other and thats what keeps the community strong and the buses on the road! Thanks again! |

| Wait, should there even be the 002 M Code? 002/425 is how it reads on the birth cert. Is 002 not supposed to be on the plate? |
