The sand blaster forgot to mask off the ID plate for my 52' on the drivers side door pillar. It's toast.
Is there a way to replace this piece of history?
Thanks frown

Chevy Duty sells them. Part #33-013 for $14.95. I'm sure other vendors have them as well. Be sure to buy the original type rivets at the same time.

I did the same on my jeep, and I had it engraved at a trophy shop with the vin.

So by the plate from Chevy Duty and just have it engraved w/ the VIN # from my registration.
Sounds easy enough.
Will my pop rivet gun work in this application after I grind off the old rivets?

Yep. Any engraving shop will be able to do it for you. The old style rivets have sort of a bubble in the center. You just tap it with a center punch an it will swell at the backside holding the plate on. No gun required. You can use your gun and regular pop rivets if you don't mind the look.
