Do you have a picture of the rest of the engine pad?

This is an old list - it's not on the current list because the GMAC doc was already reunited with the car.
Not sure how we ended up with a duplicate list.....
#3
It's a later German VIN, definitely not factory. May be a replacement VIN.  ???

I'm confused. The trans is dated 68. So not only is it the wrong trans, but the wrong year.
Yes, it should have Muncie MC1.

LOS cars have the w/o on the tag and that clearly tells us the production rate.
For this car (though the w/o is blank), that would be about the 8th day of production.

Agreed. It's legit. Exactly like the ebay one.
Not sure how you would even restamp a sheetmetal part like this.

Quote from: RD4 on April 20, 2026, 05:37:25 PMbut from what I can tell yeah I think they shipped most of the parts and the body from California
Do you have any evidence of this? I question this. From what I know, all CKD's were shipped from NJ. Including the Philippine CKD's.
The body was not shipped assembled - it was in pieces just like all CKD vehicles.
> The parts and subassemblies for CKD export units were the same parts and subassemblies that were delivered to the NOR and LOS assembly plants.

03D is the start date of the body. Several shifts until it's finished.

Tag looks reasonable, but I'm always skeptical about any 10-10 car. They weren't in high demand back in the day, but they are now. Lots of fake tags out there.....

I've had a picture of that repro POP for 10+ years.
Here's a pad picture.
Production total for KE = 0. Doesn't mean there aren't some now out there, like this one.

The top stamp is a fake. They didn't start the YH until Dec 68.

Probably the supplier.

See "Vintage Hurst Shifters, A Complete Guide Volume 1" by Pete Serio. I think Pete also rebuilds them.
