That's interesting. Where's all that the glue on the survivor car?

There was no exact amount of glue that was used... some have more than others. The car you posted still has the package shelf flap covering alot of the glue...if the flap was pulled up you'd likely find a very similar residue of glue, maybe not "quite" as much, but very similar. I don't see why anyone would assume every car had the exact same amount of glue or the exact same style of hand written X codes.

To remain 100% honest, and give the absolute best, accurate description of the car that I can up front, I learned this past weekend that the drivers side rear quarter panel on the car has been replaced at some point. I learned this after shoving a digital camera up inside the quarter from inside the trunk and snapping a few pictures. I could see the original quarter coming off the pillar, and where it was cut. The new quarter was overlaid and welded in place. The passengers side looks NOTHING like this, and as far as I can tell, it is the original quarter. Pics below.
I also learned that the spare tire is an XT coded wheel with K-1-9 stamped into it. The wheels on the car are not stamped with XT, or anything special. They are just a rallye wheel from who knows what. Also, at the request of several individuals wondering what the floorpans looked like, I pulled the interior from the car, and removed the carpet to take a couple pictures. The insulation / sound deadening (?) material on the floors, and under the seats looks older than the hills, and I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me if it appears to be what the original stuff was. It is almost a wool/burlap/ kind of material under the seats and on the floorpans, with a rubbery kind of sheet draped over the "hump" in the floor under the rear seat. As I said, I have disclosed this new discovery to several folks on the phone and emailed them pics, so to keep all parties equally informed, as well as those browsing, here are the pics. I hope everybody here had a very Merry Christmas. -adam INSIDE DRIVERS REAR QUARTER (1) INSIDE DRIVERS REAR QUARTER (2) INSIDE PASSENGERS REAR QUARTER FRONT SEATS FLOORS(1) FLOORS(2) |

I have seen an X44 Fathom Green Copo 9561 Camaro with G4 coded.

Its odd there would be an XT wheel for a spare, should have YH coded rally wheels all around, including the spare.

I assume that the wheels and tires are 15x7 on the car and the XT wheel would be a 14x7. Let me know if you want to get rid of the wrong wheel.
