Thanks coop! It was my understanding this was the cause of the '69-'71 FRV's. Am I mistaken? Edited by MontCollector 03/18/2017 10:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

When there's a clash, it hits the field first because it's raised on the die. If they over polish it, this is what happens. Report this Post to the Staff
