That's my car's in service date.
I've seen them in all three of those formats over the years so I guess it might have been who was manning the label maker at any given time. Who knows but here's a pic of an '82 label for you that should answer the question for your car:

Thanks Michael. I believe that was Jon's car. I just want to see all the '82s I can to see if they varied like you say. I actually prefer 03/28/83 and will go with that if I see an '82 different than 3 28 83. But I want it to be authentic so I will go with what evidence shows.

Removed the dash bezel this morning to get a better look at the faded and cracked Dymo tape that still exists on my dash bezel.These numbers are a little hard to read and were identified as 10 3 8 on my 1982 Mustang dash bezel.Unfortunately the last digit and the dymo tape is missing with this group of service date numbers. I would assume the mising number would be the number 3 to make it "10 3 83" for my Service date. Thank you for this information as I completly overlooked this Dymo tape on my dash.Now I just need to find out what my Unit number and E plate number .
