I don't want to go further and risk damaging the remains of this broadcast sheet.
I'm not familiar with the layout, but would any of you in the know be able to give me some help on this? Thank you.

Restoration / Finished my restoration 69 Z/28

While the board was down, I made a ton of progress. It's done,(are they ever done?)  and the following day it was featured in a pretty big car show.
Super happy with the way it came out. Someday the rain will stop here in California and I can drive it more than 20 miles. I put on it so far!

I gave up on the home made stamps. I scanned the originals off my car and made paint masks on my vinyl plotter / cutter. Not 100 % perfect but it worked for me.

I don't see an image/photo option for posting. I'm on an iPad and used to see that option.
Any help?
Thanks

Glad it's back. I was immediately notified my password was found in a data breach so I have to change it. Fingers crossed!

Post it in the Vintage Racer Section for more visibility.

I'm still learning, but I don't like it.

It may happen to fit those two holes, but it doesn't belong there. The washer bottle bracket use all three of the holes.

Isn't that where the washer bottle bracket goes on an RS?

I'm repainting my car back to the original Butternut Yellow as we speak. I took pics and measurements of my T B P stamps. I have access to a water jet, and I'm going to water jet the letters out of some 1/8 inch rubber and glue them to wood blocks. If anyone is interested, in a set, I can make more and send them out for the cost of an envelope. It will be a few weeks.
