The date Code on my shifter is 19D51J from a 02A Z/28

LOS or NOR ???  If you can, try to make pic a little smaller next time.  Thanks!

So attached is a pic of the Hurst shifter from my 69 Z, build 10B, Oct 68. Shifter is dated  6  8B2. The 6 is hard to see. I'm not sure this one is on the list? Sorry if duplication.

Thanks Jimmy V. I had copied your data over from the shifter report thread earlier.

here are pics of my 78D2

looks original but has some surface rust

so far it looks like 88D3 is the latest 4 digit code and 108D41C is the earliest 6-7 digit code ?

69Z28-RS

We haven't been keeping up with it, but are all these '69 Shifter bodies marked '3138', whether early or later ??  Or did they change the model number along with the mfg code  in the September '68 timeframe??

My 88D3 date coded shifter also has 3138 stamped on the front of the shifter body.

Most if not all should be 3138 bodies.

I also asked the 69 Firebird guys about shifters. Nothing yet.

So where's the 3138 stamping? On the front if I'm under the car looking front to rear?

yes on the front on the shifter.

3138 is the Hurst part number just for that stamped part that makes up the outside case

It was used on many OEM shifters (Camaro Firebird GTO and others)

Hans - Can you check to see if there is another digit before the 9 please? It may be very lightly stamped.  Thanks!

Is that a faint '1' before the 9D53D?

Will do.   I'll have to crawl under and see now.  The shifter is on the car....but when I blew up the pic above, there does indeed seem to be a faint 1 before the 9...
