Think you are confusing the "FE" number with the Body Number.
These are what Body number tags/plate look like but DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!!

I have been buying body number and chassis plates from Tim at minimail for years , so has everyone else on the forum . Trying to help you here . Are you getting muddled up as to what is a FE number and a body number ? . Body number is on top of the front panel . FE number is by the rad shroud or on the front floor pans . Chassis plates on the rad shroud on mk1 or on the front panel mk2 or 3 .... ken
