Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

What do these codes mean? Where can I get information on them? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Yes..Which codes in particular do you want to know about?
The codes & syntax in boxes 1-106 are for the cars actual components.
Box 107 holds the regular production options the vehicle was assembled with.
Boxes 108 & on are the delivery/assembly information details.
Looks like a typical Atl.issued buildsheet from here..

I need the codes to restore the car, like carpet says C6330 what the heck is that? Or box 76 arms rear "NHHD"??

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

C6330 stood for a specific front carpet panel that was uniquely designed for a car w/Benchseat,not buckets & not a console.It was not specifying the color in anyway.
NH HD-(Heavy Duty) was just one of the callout codes for an F-41 Super Sport specific "boxed" rear lower control arm.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

The box codes are from Inspectors guides and assembly manuals. I have inspectors guides for most year Oldsmobiles and the codes for different componemts show what would be seen in the boxes on a broadcast sheet for an Olds for that particular year. For example in box 12,for Steering knuckle, oldsmobile used code OM for option code Jl2 disc brakes. I am sure different plants and assembly lines had their own codes. These inspectors guides come up on ebay from time to time. I suspect the really good restoration shops or individuals that specialize in a particular car would have them.

Why if my car is a bucket seat car with 4 speed console has this number listed????

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

if your car is a bucket seat car w/ console the front carpet no. would be 6299, rear would be the same 3466, in boxes 77 & 78

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

could it be a typo?

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

I was just thinking, could this be a fake, If so, I got ripped off?

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Well I see I made a mistake,it was a color specific carpet code after all.And your's could be an anomaly too.
After getting home from work,and rechecking my notes,these are the carpet codes I have come across:
*C6323 was a black ft. carpet code for a Benchseat w/Floor shift.
*C6330 was a black ft. carpet code for a Benchseat w/Column shift.
*C6299 was a black ft. carpet code for a Bucketseat car,be it with or without floor console.
All three of these used black rear carpet code of C3466.

Your buildsheet seat code of 791 is an Ivory vinyl Bucketseat callout,which normally took a C6299 black ft. carpet.But it also shows it was assembled with a C6330 Benchseat Columnshift carpet and it also doesn't show any of the bucketseat or console RPO codes either.

Possibly a factory typo on the 791 code,or someone tampered with your buildsheet or car.
My computer screen isn't the best,but your buildsheet looks good to me from here..
I don't know your details,so can't say if you got ripped off or not.Take a look at your Cowl tag ontop of the driverside firewall and tell us what the seat code is.
It will be the first character on the first line and look like ST 791.Also check the floor under the bucketseat mounts for welded bkts. on either side,as the factory would've done it that way originally.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Sorry,meant to say TR 791 under ST 70.
it's been a very long day.
I'm channeling Charley...arrrrrrrgh.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Ken,

I'm not sure what level of knowledge you have about these build sheets, but in case you haven't gotten the basics, here are a few bits of info.

Some of these codes will be stamped in the parts, such as the carb code and pulley codes; other components will have a sticker (shocks) or tag (radiator) with the corresponding letters from appropriate boxes. Many of the tags and stickers are reproduced today. For the purist, having a correct tag or sticker, also means having the correct number or other identification stamped in the associated part (shocks for instance). The crazier you want to get, the more money it will cost (I guess that is obvious).

You are fortunate to have a complete build sheet for your project. It will be very helpful.

You will find a wealth of information on this site, try the search feature from time to time. Also consider Team Chevelle: www.chevelles.com. There are quite a few guys with great info there too.

Sounds like a great project. Good luck.

Phil Woj.

PS. It is neat for me to see a car from Brooklyn Chevrolet. They are still in business today (as Don's Brooklyn Chevrolet) and only a mile or so from my house. I have a 69 Camaro with 12K original miles bought new there.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

I paid $1000.00 for the car from a guy that had to sell. he said he was relocating and need to sell it fast. shipping cost me another $700.00. I found the build sheet on the passenger side door panel, glued to the cardboard. No trim tag on the cowl, no motor, trans. The rear end has CRW stamped on it. Boxed lower controll arms and disc brakes swaybar. the bucket seat brackets do look welded in on the sides. I would take pics but its at the body shop near Dickenson,Tx I live in Tomball, Tx when I get by there I will post pics. If its not a real SS its not like I lost alot of cash. Thanks guys!

Fake build sheet!

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

I won't explain how I know and hope others will refrain from educating those producing them.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Rubbin are you 100% sure?

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Absolutely

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Well I guess I will toss the sheet and just make a clone not a big deal. I didnt loose any cash. at least know I Know, if anyone ever wants to buy it down the road. I would have hated to List it as real and have a lawsuit! Thanks again guys I thought i Struck the Loto. hehe

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

I just looked at the title and it reads 136370A160999.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

Whom did you buy the car from? I would like to know their name and contact info.

Re: Anyone know how to read these codes?
 

I thought my question would be an ender!
