Thanks William,
When Bill P. contacted me, at first, over the phone, he said he thought he had my protecto-plate imprint. Apparently not, since it was not part of the papers that I recieved ?? Would be neat to see though !! I'll look for that article..sounds cool. Thanks again. |

Seems like an imprint of the protecto plate??? But why BE Silvers? and 030954?? Interesting that drivers initials are BE ?? coincidence? Also says car has 399 miles??? always wondered why. Also identitity number is same as cowl tag numeber. </div></div> BE Slivers was the driver to the Truck. The imprint that looks square was the embosser used by Complete Auto Transport to designate the assigned driver. |

Complete Auto Transport provided the carbon copy forms for Chevrolet to complete for each unit as part of the Bill of Lading package.
The heavy black type is all Chevrolet Norwood Data field information. The Embossing with the driver's name and number is Complete auto transport and was stamped when the driver was assigned, the remaining hand written information is Complete Auto Transport also. |
