Trying to track down some history on my car particularly the lost fender tag,  I have received the codes from the fender tag courtesy of Ola when the car was on eBay in 2003.  Listed by Sean Wilson of Monroe, Mi.  It seems Sean was a auto dealer?  The number is no longer in service and he hasn't responded to emails.  Anyone know him?

Also while working on the car I have found the name Steve Petrovic scratched into the vent plenum under the dash,  anyone know him?


This was the car in 2003 when on eBay

Maybe,  never thought about that.  It's done very neatly and in my opinion not while the plenum was installed in the car.

I don't have the build sheet,  haven't looked for it but since the seats are recovered I doubt it's still in place

Pretty neat finding things like that isn't it?  I noticed a feeble "Steve" and while looking closer noticed the well written/scratched "Steve Petrovic"

The car looks a lot different now

I own a 70 Cuda convertible that also has 'ROCK' written on the wheelhouse.

1970 Challenger built in Hamtramck May 1970. Marking on the passenger rear fender well. $ovape? So cool to find these things hidden away after 40+ years. Also found 3 broadcast sheets, on top of the glove box, behind the passenger front seat, behind the rear seat in the springs.

Ignore the 2 lines in the upper S.
Second letter is a Q
Fifth letter is an R not a P.

Spells square...
Mystery now half solved. LOL
