Some of the marking on my JL8 car were still visible so they were not under any paint. In fact the dealer wrote the delivery date on the underside of the hood when the car arrived and that was still there. So a lot of these markings were pretty common, it just depends on who did them and when. My car also had the sequence number written on the firewall on the driver's side and it was hidden by the fender. That sequence number matches the sequence number on the broadcast sheet found on the gas tank. If the markings were painted over before delivery, then it should be restored with the markings painted over as well. It would be incorrect to show the markings. They just help document the car during restoration.
