"The Beater Bee" becomes "The Better Bee"

[A12pilot]

And probably the coolest thing I've found was this tag hanging in the quarter window for 47 years!!!! It's a telltale clue as to how the car was built too. The tag is a parts tag with the number of the quarter panel written on it. This tag was actually wrapped around the eyelet of the quarter panel edge where the interior panel is welded to. It is also sprayed with Hemi Orange paint as well as undercoating. So the tag was between the two panels prior to paint. The tag is a parts bin tag that says "O.K". From my understanding, the tags were applied to random parts on a pallet of parts that were "O.K." to be used on assembly. On a pallet of 20 parts, maybe there were 10 tags installed (just a guess). So not every part had them, but various ones did to let inspectors know that whole pile of parts were OK to be sent to the line and be used. Usually, they are removed but this one wasn't and has been hanging in this quarter window for 47yrs!!!!
