T-3 Headlights - Whats correct ???

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

They probably won't even look, once they find enough little things, they will move on.

If you really want to get it judged by Nova guys, you need to take it to the Nova Nationals. For a car like yours, they will make extra time for the judges to go over it. At this years Nationals, they made extra time for Yenko cars and L79 cars. The vette-fest guys are ok, but they won't dig real hard. You will need to be on your toes though, they have deducted points from a car without cause. The owner had to formally protest the deduction, he got the point back (regarding a date coded battery I believe).

68 copo, I pulled A T-3 off an unmolested 68 chevy II this year and it has the vertical lines inside the T-3. I am not sure where the dates are on these but if you can tell me i'll let you know what they are if that will help you. The car I pulled it from still had the original dated plug wires and A coil I had never seen before, the coil wire slipped in and screwed down ? The car was complete and looked like it was parked 25 or 30 years ago. Original belt,alternator and even the complete original exhaust system. I think the light may be the original too. Tommy

All,
Here's what I found on the T-3 in my '69 Nova. Inside the triangle, the vertical lines. A pebble grain inside the letters T-3 and the Large T. At the top, embossed to the outside, J75. Top left, below the aiming tab, stacked vertically, 8205. Top right, same location, just the number 2. Both those locations are embossed on the inside of the glass. On the back of the light is a stamping in red-orange. The top line reads CO2. The middle line is a little smeared but appears to be D 8 26. And the bottom line is simply 12V. I'm almost certain this light is OE to this Jan 4, Ypsilanti car. For what it's worth!
