So wouldn't you know it but Mother Chrysler produced two slightly different versions of the Scamp chromed script (((sigh))). Wouldn't you know that the half done project that I bought has fresh paint and is drilled for the odd version of the emblems. Yeah I could redrill and cover up the old holes, but I'd really rather not. I have two of the right version and need three (but would buy extras if I could find them).
The big difference is the post on the back that is on the "S" is in a slightly different location. The one that I need has the following numbers cast in the back:
on the back of the "A" - 4311
on the top edge of the "S" - 3680996
on the middle of the "S" - 90332

I will pay good money for the correct emblem in very good shape on the side that shows. I've been working on the car for 3 years and have scanned every swap meet - even two tries at Carlisle and that's how I got the two correct ones that I have.

Does anybody know how to decode these numbers so that I would know what year emblem I am seeking? I have 10 nice examples of the other version of this script if anybody is looking...
 

Thanks for checking the '75 emblems for me!

marty - the year of the car I'm working on is kinda irrelevant since it has been modified and bears no resemblance to what it should be. It is actually an original 1970 Dart 340 four speed car (plum crazy to boot) but the car was a drag car from 1972 to the mid 90s. The last owner bought it and tried to turn it into a pro touring car and changed the front clip to a Duster clip so it would look like his high school Scamp. He ran out of gas on the project, but before he did he spent big bucks on body mods and paint. It's a sweet looking body, but definitely not stock. He bought several Scamp emblems and used one as a pattern to drill emblem holes in three places, but didn't notice that the emblem he used did not match all the rest that he bought and the one he used was pretty pitted. So here I am making the best of someone else's work.
 
I'm still on the hunt for a couple good Scamp crome script emblems!!!
See above for details!
 
So hopefully this picture will load.
The top emblem is what I am looking for - the post is almost all the way out to the bend in the 'S'.

Bottom photo is the more common style with the post farther back on the leg of the 'S'
