Just found this

https://www.yenko.net/forum/showthre...nder+extension
Was it a style trim car? X11?
if so that explains the M. piercing the extension for the two screws unique to the wheel opening moldings.

FWIW The middle Yellow Fender Extension with only 427 and no additional Alpha code is Dave Beem's X66 YENKO (Bill Hunter car) so no fender extension piercings, no CUI call outs.
Which falls in line with the theory... 427 with M is style trim with R is Rallysport.
