Looks like repop. Thought it probably was. For show purposes only. Thanks, Lee.

I actually think there is a chance that it's a real window sticker. It looks like other original typed stickers I've seen, has the company car stamp and Caprice Custom Equipment was Z18. If whomever typed it happened to lose track of the line where they were typing the info from, they may have typed reading the line below Z16. I'll have to do some comparing. It also has the right ECL code for tinted glass.

Why would a legitimate sticker from the factory have been typed on a typewriter? Obviously the other three examples from 1965 Chevelles posted above were all computer generated.

Not sure, just asking. IBM 360 series were standard of the industry in late 60’s-70’s. Not sure they were on the market in 65, but maybe there was something else. Hard to imagine every invoice was hand typed either. That one’s jarring the memory pretty good. |

Most were not hand typed but some definitely were. Usually if it was a company car and they retyped it to show the dealer it was being sold through. The font matches other typed stickers I have seem including one from a 65 Impala SS. Maybe these were a typed at the zone office instead of the plant. Who knows. But they definitely hand typed some of them. It has that company use stamp on it, which ive never seen a repro have. Not many people even know about that part. I actually saw a hand typed sticker from a 68 caprice a few months ago.
