02D is not 1970/Feb/4th week, it reads 02/4 as in 02 0ut of 12 months production 12D is December 4th week. 09D is September. Your tag should show ST 69 11427 if it correct for your VIN.

stefano My vin is 114279w430890 The trim tag states (02d) as build code?? That should equal (1970 feb. 4th week) correct..But car is with out a doubt a 1969 model, Thats a no brainer. Please let me know if i am missing something

[/ QUOTE ] Everything you are stating lines up with a Feb 1969 69 nova including the vin 430xxx, nothing 1970 about it. the 0 in 02 isnt 1970

Todd, I think all the 69 novas had 840 heads, and 163 intakes whereas the 70 was a "new" 396/402 with small plug heads, and the low rise aluminum intake.
I can't remember any cases of carryover as this was a 402 in 70 although it was still called a 396.
How about some deuce pictures? And we'd sure like to hear about it.
