I am guessing you saw the $79 duece and half top in heir latest surplus catalog. I am wondering the same thing. But the desert tan canvas would clash with my OD paint

Drivers side frame rail forward of the axle. Look for the stamped serial number there....Glove box doors and data plates are frequently changed...

As to correct year I am not sure I would bother if it was much effort to change it...unless in NY you could qualify for antique/classic plates....

Buy your self a half inch stamping kit. grind off the offending numbers and stamp on what ever you need.

The serial number on my frame looks like is was stamped by a guy who had a couple of drinks at lunch....
