When I used to attend the U.S. Grand Prix at Watkins Glen I would buy two
souvenirs: one was the always wonderful Michael Turner poster of the event,
the other was a dash plaque of the event that I affixed to my Fiat 124
Spider. I wouldn't consider that as provenance that either my Fiat or myself
had participated in a Grand Prix other than being one of the unwashed masses
that drank too much beer and cheered on our heroes.

AFAIAC such dash plates were issued to commemorate the participation of such a
car in the event, not that the car itself participated.
