Engineering Drawings in most companys were revised by using letters, e.g.,    Dwg 35308 Rev. D

Certain letters traditionally were skipped as they could be confused with numbers. Among those are letter i and letter o.

Wrong.  The BMW 3 series wasn’t even introduced until 1975 (I think; I’m not a Beamer guy despite my German heritage).  Tony was correct about the number “1”, or at least that is the best we know.

Hi,

It looked too much like the number 1.

This is covered in the long history.

In all the years I've hung around this gang no one has ever discussed the * Chrysler 300 I *....

What happened to that particular letter of the alphabet? :-)
