I am the new proud owner of a 1969 L36 convertible! I really have "the fever" and am trying to find out everything I can about my car
I was able to reach up and find/remove which appears to be the only remaining piece of my gas tank build sheet/sticker (not sure exactly that you call it). I have the upper left hand corner portion of the sheet which I am trying to decifer
Couple of questions:
Top right hand block says:
Ident. No
287237
What is this and what does it mean?
Block below that says:
Model
19467
Which I understand means this is a convertible
Below that is a column which says "Equip. Code" but it appears that nothing is in this column or all the writing has worn off
To the right of this is a Column which says "Option No", this is where the sheet is torn/stops, but I can read some of the codes, here's where the majority of my questions come in:
1. All codes start with 02 and appear to be followed by at least one A (i.e. 02xxxA). What does this mean and am I correct that these are the option codes?
2. The codes appear to be broken up into groups, meaning that their appears to be blank lines between groupings of the codes. Are these codes grouped/listed in any particular order?
3. I have researched the codes (or what I beleive to be codes) to the best of my beginner ability, but can clearly see parts of some codes that I don't find anywhere. So, what would:
02CO5A.. be? It proceeds 02CO7 which I understand is the hardtop option which I didn't know the car even originally had. Also, lower down in another "grouping" i can clearly see 02CO (but that's all I can make out) after 02AO
Here is the listing (with the spaces) I can make out (x's are letters/numbers between other numbers/letters I can make out, and what I think the options are/may be. Verification and corrections are greatly appreciated
Option No
02xxxAA - ?
02xxxAA - ?
xxGxxxx - positraction (only G code - but this writing is very faint and may be something else)
02M21xx - close ratio 4 speed
02PT6A - red stripe tire
02CO5A - ?
02CO7A - hardtop
02U69 - AM-FM Radio
02AO - tinted glass
02CO - ?
02G - ?
02 - ?
02N - ? (car has side exhaust and power steering
02T - Louver trim (only T code and car has them)
xxxxx - ?
x2 - ?
Again any assistance is appreciated. I am excited that the car may have.originally had an M21 transmission (was told it was the M20) Is there a way to verify this looking at the transmission - assuming the original tranny is still in the car?
Apoligize if these questions aren't appropriate for this forum, but I am new to all this and am thirsting for knowledge.
