Originality / Body number questions LOS plant

« on: June 10, 2007, 11:19:25 PM »

I'm working a car that has a VIN # 124377L1006698

I want to have a new trim tag made for it since someone ripped the original off.

The car is Tahoe Turquoise

I was a RS orig. stuff present

it has power steering and power disc brakes

the other options are power windows, A/C

when I bought the car the motor and trans were out 396 auto but the owner said it wasn't for sale. most likely not orig. is there a way to tell if it was a big block car?

10 bolt multi leaf rear end. Owner said it had a 12 bolt but got trashed at the drag strip. MIA

How do I come up with a build date and body number etc. for the new trim tag?

I don't want present the car for something it's not I just want it to look correct as a best guess can get.

Frank

My best guess from what is present:

GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION
                               ?
           ST  67-12437 LOS ?   BODY
           TR  756-Z         LL   PAINT
               WX 2EB 3L
               4?          5B

I'm not 100% but I believe these were wet and slide style like most GM add on stickers

the peel and stick repops are visually correct.

I've both original and repop.

the original brackets allow for better fit.

the two bumpers were very close in appearance. the average camaro guy couldn't tell them apart.

the brackets are the key to good fit. repop bracket will take some mods to get a good fit.

 my guess would be about 750 to 1000 each on Quarter panels and 500 for the tail pan.
