I reassembled and threw the tank back in the car and the fuel gauge continues to get a good signal. I took a few archeological shots prior to putting all back together and wanted to get some input from the experts on the markings (crayon) and stampings (date code?) that I found. Notice all of the extra solder around the various joints.

Thanks...

Sam, sender was assembled 38th day of 1969.


These were Julian dated.


What's the car's build date?

Opps...tank was assembled 38 day of 1969.

I was hoping that’s what that code meant. Thanks! The car is 06A built. I’m surprised you know this Shaun because I only thought you worked on them Prancin’ Horsey cars!

hey watch it - i do read these threads!

Yeah Eddie, I remember the day I introduced the two of you to each other. I am afraid you have taken this innocent young man to the dark side and we may never get him back!! ;>))


Any thots from the experts on the meaning of the crayon marking? "368"?

Don't worry Sam, I'm back , damn horsey bucked me off, don't know what the hell Eddie feeds these things anyways. I think the "merinera" sauce didn't agree that mare. :dunno::dunno:

Ha! Good to have you back Shaun. Yeah, those tennacles of the dark side can be compelling! ;>))

Sam
# 368 might have been a sequence number for the 368th car that day, or shift ?
And don't pay no mind to those two out in Arid Zona, the heat is getting to them about now ...

OK -thanks Mike. However, that Feerary guy in AZ emailed me the same thing!
