Any thoughts on what would be an appropriate month in the carburetor date stamp for a GT500 actually built Jan 28, 1969? I'm assuming it would be sometime in Q4 1968. Thanks.
Are you asking about the date stamp on the carb or on the tag?
For the carb I've got original cars in that period stamped with the date of 895 in my records. Tag dates? I'ld have to look closer in another location for that data if that is what your asking. Kevin Marti does reproduce those.
My car is jan 29 with 895 on the carb.
Original carb
Is the car a 69 or 70

Inquiring about the date stamp on the carb itself. Should that date match with the date on the carb tag?

Thanks Patrick. Do you have a carb tag as well and if so what is that date?
My tag is repro. Marti put a similar date on it.
Carbs and tags were not changed on 1970 cars. They just stamped the "ED" code on to the 1969 tag, if the car was updated to 1970 specs
