Decoding/Numbers / Re: 69 Trim tag numbers

« on: June 03, 2009, 12:35:52 AM »

Hi Z71, call it what you want. It still doesn't match the trim tag. One of the two has to be what the car came from the factory with. Has anyone heard of discrepancies like this, or has the vin been changed? If the dates weren't the same, I would be sure the vin was changed.  I have heard of mistakes before. Just not sure how bad. Any input is appreciated.
Thanks

The car does have the black comfortweave in it. Just can't figure out why the GM build sheet says parchment hounds tooth, & Ralley green paint. Doesn't jive with the trim tag on the fire wall.
Thanks

PS, The date code on the trim tag is 10 C. The date on the build sheet is October 19,1968. Basicly the same date. Sounds weird huh.

Decoding/Numbers / 69 Trim tag numbers

« on: May 29, 2009, 02:48:24 AM »

I;m looking at a 69 RS/SS 396. Got a copy of the build sheet back from GM (Canadian car)that decodes the vin as a RS/SS 396, but the trim is supposed to be 79(Ralley Green) & 729 (Ivory Hounds tooth). But The trim tag on the fire wall says Trim 712(standard black) & PNT 71 71(Lemans Blue) Has any one heard of this, where the Build sheet is differant from the trim tag?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
