One of mine had been painted and I was able to clean it up pretty good with that "goop off" stuff. I was worried it would take off the original colored writing that is not stamped in but it worked out pretty good.
I guess it depends on the year as to if it has colored writing though. My 72 had the vin and a couple of other things embossed with the rest all in blue writing. My 70 has no color with everything on the plate embossed
