Underhood markings

[12SVT]

Anyone know what markings the Cobras came with from the factory under the hood? I'm referring to the sharpie marks. My car has one that's says 252 center of the radiator and one over of the driver headlight but it is faded an can't read It well. Wondered if anyone knew what they are supposed to be.

i would say that is a number for the dealer new car prep / make ready guy that he completed his work.

Ok. I was sure if they were of any significance. I don't plan to remove them but I wasn't sure what they meant either.

your cars build date is stamped with paint over near the hood prop rod clip,

Along the same lines... What's the best way to reproduce the white X on the top of the air cleaner box. Tried white crayon and results were only ok.

they sell a white tire marker at the parts store, i think it used to whiten letters on side walls.
