One quick question. I found the trim sheet under the rear seat and it's dated 4/28/71 and the car was sold ten days later? Was this common? How long did it take them to get the interior in the car and out the door? Not familiar with the production process. It just raised a brow because my other Nova was built in December of 69 and it sat at Ammon R. Smith for almost 5 months.

Re: protecto-plate booklets
 
Do many of your guys POPs have the serial # of the car punched out along one of the top edges of the booklet?

Re: protecto-plate booklets
 
I think the punched serial #'s may have been a '68 only practice. I've never seen it on '69 and later, or on any '67's.

Mine it not punched and it is a 68 LA car. I have heard it was a very sparatic practise.
