Right, strap in… :read2: more digging reveals…

MI is the plant. In this case the Motor Wheels Plant. Specifically Michigan.

The 8 is a day and the 10 is a month stamp, so 8th October. That’s the easy bit.

The dot looks like it’s a decade marker. Apparently, Chrysler used a dot system to denote ...

Looks like the MI bit is a batch / casting code.

3766077 are Police package wheels, apparently. 15 x 7, big bolt pattern.

There a some great photo's there, Derek. We are certainly all looking different as time goes on.

I'm not very happy that you have clearly photoshopped me to look like a fat Bananarama!, though. I think you have put at least 3 stone on me there. Did you use a fish eye lens?

Ignore that, just caught up with the workshop thread.

Interested in how this went, Jeff. Any good?

Put in a nutshell, I’m back.

Mint.

Not hanging about getting stuck in then, Jeff!

Any bites on the Nomad yet?

I like the braaaahn interior.

I’d get in touch with Chris at Goodale American Speedshop in Wisbech.

Cheers, both. :thumbright:

Building a bit of a tool storage area, with a bed over the top of it and a basic bench seat. That’s all it’ll have, it’s a back up and tow van, not a camper. Still some covering to do and cleaning up of glue, but got a mattress on the way and I’ll sort some bench foam ...

A fair point and something I hadn't considered!

Good news is, the new plate is correct American size.

Bad news is, they are making me wait 4 weeks...

Other than it looks Bananarama!, I mean.

Why so? It’s passed MOT and square plates are allowed on imports.

That said, it’s getting a new plate tomorrow anyway.

So I’ve got a nice solid van with a carpeted rear, what to do…

Start pulling it apart, obviously! :D

First things first, the jack and brace can go, they are in the way and I’m buggered if I’m going to trust a scissor jack at the side of the road anyway. Bit of extra weight gone!

Carpet up, some ...

Just realised I never posted the images of the boot floor in place and stitched, so here they are, along with some progress on strengthening the front braces.

On to paint prep now!
