72 nova trim tag
 

decoding help?

short story, this car now belongs to my duaghters freind. It was his fathers [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]. 7 years ago he was diagnosed with brain cancer and finally several weeks ago succumbed to the disease. The car has not moved during that time period. I have offered my service to help them ready the car for sale. Cleaqn it up , get running..safe etc..they want to move on, the boy needs money for college and has no knowledge of old cars. When I get it into the shop I will post what I find and more pics. From what I saw it looks solid!

thanks
(please no offers to buy. This is not a sales add)

Albert, First line is year &quot;72&quot; then &quot;11427W&quot; means v8 built at Willow Run Mi. Next set of numbers are body sequence numbers. Second line &quot;761&quot; means dark green cloth bench seat custom interior. &quot;43&quot; is body color gulf green. &quot;A52&quot; means bench seat. Either the &quot;B&quot; before this means the car has a black vinyl roof or the &quot;G&quot; after it means the car has a medium green vinyl roof... Not too sure on the other numbers. May be build dates..

Hope this helps... I'm no expert....

Some clarification on line #3
The first &quot;B&quot; is part of the build date, the Mo. # is covered over, B is 2nd week.

the &quot;G&quot; is the interior trim color including hard painted surfaces. Green.

The #3 is the exterior trim level. on this car vinyl top trim, side window trim, and body side trim. Note the trim level could be blank, 1, 2, or 3.

Last #'s I am not sure on, scheduling of sequence ?
