Mark,
 I had never heard that there was a trim tag snafu in April and May of 68 at the LA plant (I have heard about the 1969 NOR 6A tags). Could you expand, if possable about the 68  LA snafu?
  I will check the body # when I get home.
     Victor

Mark,
 Thank you for the reply, It's a 1968 LA built car, 340398.
 Thanks again,
    Victor

Mark,
 My 05C has a birth date of 5/6/68, seems odd to me. Any thoughts?
  Thank's
    Victor

 On some cars you will find one of each, one for the front and the other for the rear. it depended on the amount of  plate space and as mike stated, some times covered too much of the plate.
 BTW, phone numbers, 800 numbers, mutli brands, . coms, ect did not come till much later. I have never seen a 60's or 70's frame with a casting date.
   I still have not found ANYBODY that remembers TED GREEN Chevrolet in Torrance CA., where my car came from. I live about 5 miles from that dealership (now Martin Chevrolet and Geo)
    And have asked many many long time local cruisers to no avail.  I was only 6  in 1968. Just makes it sweeter when I do find some plate frames.
              Good luck,
                 Victor

Does she have any sisters?

Later 68's SS have "mustache" stripes and the 69SS's have "hockey" stripes.

-Vellu,
  That may not be the frame from the late 60's time period, I belive it is later 70's. Still nice to have, no one will even know. I think the ones from that period did not have a phone number but a location, lust like the PDF ad above. It looks like the phone number is different from the Ad.

Jon,
business week 's  story claims ZL-1 427 in 1967, what is the story on that? Would you know what kind of " Mag" wheels they used?
     Victor

Jon,
 Thank you for posting this, I am currently at work and blocked, but will be all over it when I get home.

The spoiler looks tall to me, reminds me of the early race cars, hmmm.

What works best to re-bond the thin walnut grained console shift plate insert to the shift plate ?
     Thanks guys,
       Victor

Nick,
 is your car a LA or Norwood? My car is a 05C, with a birth date of 5/6/68. Just wondering.

Dave,
 Not sure about the main 8 clips, BUT the two end clips are held to the body with screws. If you look at the end clips you will see the mounting hole, the body mounting hole should line up with the clip holes if the are aligned correctly.
  This is too common on the first gen F bodys, it seems that lots of the end clips go unattached when reinstalled. The body mounting hole is below the bottom of the drip rail above the door hinge.
