Manufacturers Name Plate Help!

[jshaver]

I am a new Hearse owner and I'm trying to find out as much as I can about the Hearse I have. It is a 1974 Cadillac Deville Miller Meteor

I need help on the Manufactuers Name Plate. All of the numbers are stamped in the metal, but the paint on the tag that identifies what the numers are has rubbed off.

So here is what I have:

Top Line: VIN Number
Second Line: 74296 300G (no idea what this is)
Third Line: Aspen White 12 (could this be the original interior)
Fourth Line: 65-Cadillac (no idea)
Fifth Line: Zodiac Blue 24 (assuming exterior paint color)
Sixth Line: 71-CAD (Again, no idea)

Thanks for the help!

After a second look, it appears the previous owner rubbed/removed all the paint off my factory Miller-Meteor plate, leaving just the stamped numbers, just like yours.
Thanks to you, Boogeyman and eric anderson for bringing this to my attention.

Cadillac had the vin stamped on the frame crossmember in front of the radiator, on drivers side. Did this up to the early sixtes, but dont know when they stopped.
