Build sheet wheel cover codes

**Rainer** · #1 03-01-2005, 12:23 AM

Does anyone have info to decipher the different wheel cover codes on build sheets? I'm looking at box #91 on a 70 Chevelle sheet. I'm specifically trying to find out what the code would be for the standard 68-70 "dog dish" hubcaps, part #3916434.

Asking this another way, does anyone know what wheel cover is indicated by "BG---"? I'm guessing this means a small cap (the standard dog dish?) with no trim ring.

Thanks!

I assume the buildsheet shows the wheel color (like the 67-9 Camaro broadcast sheets). That should answer your question; any body colored wheel is a dog dish, black for full hubcaps.

You know what happens when people assume...

This car has a special-order paint code (- -) on the cowl tag, and the build sheet is blank across box #44 (Color). Any other ideas?

Here is a picture of the PO1's. Bought myself a complete set from Charley last year. I am going to be putting them on my 69 Camaro convertible this spring, just as soon as I get them restored. The PO1's originally came on my convertible, per the windowsticker, buildsheet, etc.

I love those caps Mr.T....I pieced together a NOS set for my 68 loooong after finding a nice pile of used caps.Good luck!

Hey Steve,

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one with the PO1's. It gives the car a different look, versus the Rally wheels you see all the time. Now I just need to get rid of the ralley's that are currently on my vert. Got a picture of your 68 with the PO1's?

Sorry, out of my area of knowledge.

I don't see any color code for the wheels on a buildsheet. Kinda surprised.
What wheels are indicated in box 45?

Box 45 lists YB code 14x6 wheels. I'm thinking someone on this site has a build sheet for a car that originally came with the dog dish caps. Anyone?
