400 Firewall ID Brass plate

Reproductions are usually done in 2 ways, Etched or photo over the brass.
Etched is by far the best and is the original method and will last the
life of the car. Photo looks the same, but fuel oil and time will dull and
fade the print. Within some 10 years all you will have left is the brass
plate with some barely legible wrting.
