Default Re: 70 SS Body Tag, Vin Plate, Firewall Stamp Question

Welcome
ZL-3 Conversion is common among these cars.It merely lets the assembly know to prepare the body for a Super Sport provisional upgrade.

Paint production code 927-99846 is indeed Code #43 Citrus Green Acrylic Lacquer.Does this Chevelle have white Band aid stripes & a Flapper door Cowl Induction hood?
Is the Interior color Black,or Ivory?

Why is your user name the Chevelle Convertible code..do you own one?

The car in question has no stripes on the build sheet nor does it have a flapper hood, it has the non-functional cowl hood. The interior is black, bucket seat with console, TH 400, IP gauges. The car was painted 73 corvette blue when I bought it, but I did see David Gilsmer's car on ebay and got a good look at citrus green.

And yes, I do also have a 70 SS convertible, 396/350 car. I bought the 13637 just after high school and the 13667 during college.

Thanks for your reply.

That's a very unique color for your Chevelle.
Good for you for holding onto it so long.
I found this while thumbing through some memorabilia I collect.

It says on the paint sheet that citrus green (43) is not available on LS-6 cars???? Wonder why that was. what difference did it make?

Thank you for all of the feedback on my qestions. I would like to post a few pics of what I found on my firewall and hopefully some one can comment. I realize this car is no Yenko, COPO, LS6, L-78, but I appreciate your time in replying. Here is a shot of the writing on the firewall that I saw after stripping it.

Thanks,

Here is a photo of the stamped number that was found inside the car, on the interior side of the firewall, under the blower motor and inside of the duct area on the passenger side. (hope that makes sense) It reads 13437Z19.
