clearing out the garage to make more space for the final painting of my pickup, I came across this plate in among the bits and pieces bin from the original stripdown. can anyone identify it. bearing in mind the pickup was recovered from a farm, and the last owner recovered and repaired all manner of farm machinery. This plate was on the cab floor under the drivers seat.[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

I amaze myself at times, how are you all supposed to id a plate with no scale in the picture, if my brains were dynamite I wouldn't have enough to blow my own mind. Lets try again...[frame]Image[/frame]

well I can't find a match for it in the catalogue, so it must be farm machinery related, I'll use it as the sacrificial metal in my next electrolysis session.
