Well, the PAINTED numbers could well be worn away. Rightfully, those painted numbers should read AS2-5J. The paint hasn't held up well after 50 years. The stamped numbers should be there tho. If they were 19000 or SMALLER, chances are it's a 1st gear start. While light green ISN'T called out in the list of tag colors, light blue is and it could be that the blue has faded to green thru the years - especailly with exposure to heat and tranny fluid.[xx(]
The only green-colored tags used (and it's a medium green, not "light green") were on later Champion automatics. While one of these probably WOULD fit up behind a V8, it probably wouldn't hole up long unless the driver feather-footed the throttle most of the time.[:X]
