Great photo here of a 34 Sp8 INSTRUMENT PLATE showing the factory Brown Herringbone surrounded by the Gray Pin Strip
called out on factory drawing

That is a fairly well known car. Somewhere I have a picture of it from 40 years ago. Believe it or not the late Paul Lamb had a 34 Su8 sedan in even better shape. It still had all the striping. Another car that was a mint original is a 35 Eight Club Sedan which is pictured in Turnquist's book. It might also be for sale. At least there is an original with a CCCA senior badge for sale. I can't tell because someone threw the wheel covers away, but it was something like a 95 point original car. Hopefully nobody will destroy that nice radiator shell.
