Research Topics & Reports / Re: Gas tank date codes
« on: Today at 02:44:19 AM »
The gas tanks are dated with a week and year code.
67 has a calendar week code. 16 D 7 would be the 16th week of 67, day shift. 40 6N would be 40th week of 66, night shift.
The format changed in 68 and 69 to have the week counted from the beginning of the *model* year. The extended 69 model year used tanks dated for the 70 model year.
LOS and NOR data is intermixed and shows the same pattern.

67:

Restoration / Re: Show chrome plating Legends Judging
« on: April 07, 2024, 02:54:58 AM »
Your stainless guy does some of the best polishing I've seen, compared to the other 69 that was being judged - side by side the stainless on your car was far superior.
There's no question, the stainless will polish much brighter than factory. But it will oxidize over time (might not be a problem on a show car) and isn't the factory finish.

Foreign Camaros / Re: Swiss Camaro, Explanations

I'm confused why I didn't reply!
CKD is a prefabricated car which in turn is disassembled for shipment. At the destination is rebuilt together. Correct?
And SUP are undefined on an Ato, so miscible with all the other parts?
Grtz Tom
No. Incorrect. CKD is a car shipped in parts (the exact same parts shipped to the US assembly plants) and assembled at the CKD plant. Those parts would never see the inside of the US assembly plant - they would be sent to the warehouse in Bloomfield, NJ. When all the parts were gathered, the shipment of  would be sent.

More detail:
All of the non-U.S. factories assembled Camaros from "completely knocked down" (CKD) kits. The CKD cars were exported as a kit with complete assembly required. The parts and subassemblies for CKD export units were the same parts and subassemblies that were delivered to the NOR and LOS assembly plants. These parts were shipped to a central collection point (called a "boxing plant"), consolidated into kits, and then packed into containers for shipment overseas to small GM joint-venture and contractor-operated assembly operations. The boxing plant was located in Bloomfield, NJ and was managed by GM Overseas Operations. With twenty-four cars in the typical export car order (XCO) and generally six CKD kits to a container, that meant four containers were required per XCO.

SUP is a complete assembled-in-US car that is then shipped internationally.
