Working on the rear end and couldn't resist dropping the tank. Tank sticker was intact except upper left corner, covered in silt. Some compressed air and gentle work with a brush revealed a very legible sticker. Confirms this is a 454 convertible 4 speed. Classic white/ vinyl interior black. M20 4 speed. Confirms optional hardtop (I have it- black vinyl covered). The car has a blue ragtop now. I assumed it should be black but the tank sheet says white!! Push button radio, postraction rear end. Can anyone decipher the option codes any further? I plan to leave the sticker on this tank and print out a copy to fix to a new tank with laminate.

Re: Tank sticker intact after 39 years
I got a triangular piece about a half inch per side that reads "adio". That was the extent of my build sheet. A real bummer. However, I do have the original sales invoice with the original owner's name and address. I researched it and think I found both him adn his son. I just haven't gotten up the nerve to contact them for fear of blowing it and not getting any additional info on my LT1.
Thanks.- Top

Re: Tank sticker intact after 39 years
Looks like zone 02 and dealer 295 but it is a little faded. From my protect-o-plate, the car was delivered to Palmyra motors in Rochester NY. I am the second registered owner. The first was a woman. Her name appears on the p-o-p and her married name on the registration from 1997 which was used to transfer ownership to me (No title in 1970 in NY, just transferable registration).
I do have a phone number for her but I get a recording on the weekends. I haven't had time to try during the week. I've been able to piece together a pretty good history but it would be nice to speak to her to confirm my info. The middle man that flipped the car to me said she may have the window sticker. One can only hope...- Top
