The picture doesn't show much at all. I used to work on aircraft
accessories and they had their data plates attached by a pin with a twist
shank which was taped into the hole through the data plate and just screwed
itself into the drilled hole in the equipment. The accessories were
starters, generators, fuel pumps, vacuum pumps, and hydraulic pumps, all the
data plates were attached in the same way. Looking at the attached plate the
pins looked like small rivet heads.

OK, the attached pic is lousy, but it shows Ron Mog's 56 NY'er, that he's fixin up, to take to Tulsarama. Anyway, he (& I) had thought that the door hinge-piller's metal VIN tag had been 'spot-welded' to the door post. He discovered that the VIN tag had MERELY been "punched" into PRE-existing(??) mating-HOLES, cut into the hinge piller. I say "pre"-cut, because, if the VIN tag would have been 'punched' into the hinge piller, the "punch" would have had to penetrate the VIN tag, in order to punch holes clean-thru the heavy-steel hinge piller!!! So, the mating-holes HAD to have preceded the VIN tag being 'punched' INTO those holes. Again, there was ONLY a physical -attachment (via the punch-depressions) of the Vin tag, to the hinge piller.
