I've seen the Con-Cor ad that states there will be no lettering and
that will be fine as long as "no lettering" means "no lettering and no
numbering." I just don't want to receive a car that is ostensibly a
1938 2nd 4th PZ car that ends up wearing a 525 number. If the car
comes with no number, then there's no problem.
Thanks to all who have put in their 2 cents worth on this.
