You can also remove the clips with a small ice pick or a small flat blade screwdrier. The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"

"2" indicates that your car was made in the Tarrytown, New York factory. "AE" is the series, which is 1931 Independence. "95710" means that your car was the 94,710th car made in the Tarrytown factory in 1931. Note: All car serial numbers started at 1,001. Post all of the numbers that are on your Fisher Body cowl tag and we will tell you what those mean as well. The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"
