Hi, In the boot of my LH SLR5000 Torana there is a small brass badge located on the rear left hand side with some numbers. Can anyone please help and let me know if they mean anything or could they have been placed there by the previous owner?
Thanks Tori75

When I worked at Ford Mo Co, all managers who had Company cars had what was commonly called a "brass tag" issued to their car. It also had numbers on it to identify who leased the car. They were either round or square and usually fitted to the number plate.
It could be something like this although having it located in the boot sounds unlikely.

Firstly, I'd like to say, nice car (lets see some more of it lol), secondly I can only offer some suggestions on the tag. It could be a dealership stock number? It looks like it's been there a while, but who knows, I have never seen that before.
