Lloyd - thank you for finding the muscilage part that makes sense why they fell off so often.

I don't think that is correct. I would bet it was put on the label first.
QuoteI don't think that is correct. I would bet it was put on the label first. Fair enough, as we don't have information from John D on that process we don't know. I'm trying to reconcile how glue residue on the trunk panel can be outside the dimensions of the Caution label (my car for example). Was the glue applied to the panel first followed by the paper label or if glue was applied to the label first was the label slid or moved around / into position during installation?
You took a picture of Benny's white car. It has very little glue on it & mostly in the middle. You still have that picture?...Joe

I would BET that part of the process varied depending on the day and who was doing it... *Even if it was specified how to do it in their guideline manuals, that's something people just do the way they want to! PS. I wonder where that Fisher archive got off to??? Gary

QuoteMy X77's label is missing, always has been since I bought the car in ;73, but the glue is still plainly visible on the deck lid, a solid bead much like what comes out of a latex caulking gun. applied in the form of a loop on the right underside of the lid. Really sloppy job, probably why the label came off. Definitely not roller applied - Regards,SteveSteve, is your Camaro Van Nuys or Norwood built? Please post a photo of the Caution label adhesive residue from your trunk lid.

Does anyone have a picture of the jacking instructions for the N66 SS rim option?
Lloyd, Worse than I remembered. Tough to see the spot where I tried to remove the bead with a razor blade - I gave up pretty quickly. That is original Le Mans blue paint, like this when I bought it in '73. never touched the underside. Regards,Steve
