Thank you. You are right. STYLE is 1837. The old tag is hard to read. Hopefully, someone may know what the "ACC" code is. Do you know where I may find some old chevy numbers books that may have the missing code?

Thanks again.

It's the 11,133rd IMpala Sport coupe body built at Norwood, OH. The ACC code 373 is probably really 37B. It's originally a 283 car.
