Default 'Sorry...'Still need a photo of the 1929 MURRAY...

....Fordor/Town Sedan firewall where the data plates are located. I know where the four-hole Ford data plate goes, but the two holes for the Murray body number plate had been filled in and painted over before I got the car. 'Can't tell from inside the firewall, either. The plate either had to be located above the larger Ford data plate in the upper 1/3 firewall, or next to the sediment bulb in the middle 1/3 firewall (1929 Murray firewalls were in three parts bolted together). Both places seem logical for this small company plate.
I have looked through the usual Model A picture books, as well as back issues of the Town Sedan Club newsletter. Maybe I missed a few issues, but oddly no sources show that portion of the firewall where the two plates are located. Could someone please post a photo (or send it to me privately as an attachment) of that portion of the firewall if the Murray plate is still present? I need to see the spacing from and relationship to the Ford data plate, so the whole firewall does not need to be shown. I only want to drill the holes once in the new paint job and in the right place.
Thanks in advance.
Marshall
