Are you planning on having the car stripped down to the metal when it is painted? If the last guy didn't sand off all the yellow that could spell some paint trouble in the future. I'm sure you will have the car done right though

I can go and take some pictures of the delete plate on my dads "original" 92 CHP. I'm sure Ford didn't change anything lol

I used a double stick foam type tape piurchased from auto parts store, same kind used to attach emblems on a car etc.
Attached pieces to the delete plate ( trim it before attaching to fender )
Then just press it on over the antenna hole.

It's applied same as an emblem ( example the 5.0 emblem ) double stick tape is all.
You can see a layer of the tape between the fender and plate.
Make sure you get the dark gray or black double stick tape of course.

Please do. Yes, I want the car sanded to bare metal or media blasted. Same as some other restos we've seen here. She'll need some body work along the way, too.

Thanks for the pic, John. Maybe that's the thickness I'm seeing - the tape - in the other photos.
