  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    LOL....I had to look that one up Jim!

    Supra (Latin for "above") is an academic and legal citation signal used when a writer desires to refer a reader to an earlier-cited authority

    Unfortunately law and medicine are permeated with Latin script. When you type all day using the terminology it creeps into the rest of what you do.

    Just for giggles "infra" means it is referenced in the text that follows.

    Toyota made an "Infra"? :Do No:

    Anyway, when people post for cowl tag help, many people chime in. Where does everyone get their info from?

    This time I got it from my brain. I memorized the first 6 of all the GS cars from 70 to 73 . The vins are pretty easy with a few variations like the 71 its a bastard year with all the GS hardtops beig 43437 but
    BB 70 44637
    SB 70-71-72 43437
    BB 71 43437
    BB 70 vert 44667

    ANyway look here I studied these and have owned several BB cars

    All 72 GSs, both 350 and 455 cars, will have 434 on the cowl tag. The cowl tag will not differentiate between BB and SB - only the VIN (in 1972).
