Anyone else think that stamp looks funky? Help the guy out. I know there are some experts here that can tell right away if it's a bad stamp or not.

Looks like a factory double strike to me.

I see possible issues with that stamp, but I can't tell with that picture quality....

The front characters used match the front gang loading used in Flint in March of '70 to a tee.

I do not like it either. But I think it is also likely original.

Kinda hard to make an evaluation on a stamp you can't see clearly.

Im not liking that engine stamping. A better close up of that is needed.
Doesn't look right from what I see.
