    That is a great question, and one that I would like to know. I will ask my GURU - Kevin Jeannette- from Gunnar Racing . If it can be done he has done it.

    International Mercantile sells the plates and will also stamp them for an additional charge. I've never used them, don't know how accurate they are.

    Check page 3:

    What year is that plate from. Looks like a machine gang stamp. Most of the plates I see, mostly early 70's are hand stamped, uneven in pressure and alignment. Gled

    It's a 1971.. And yes all the ones that I have seen that heve been redone look generic or fake. Here a picture of another one that I found in Internet. They are identical.
