Default Re: Special L78 Nova Code Under the Heater Core Cover?

Do not go crazy trying to analyze these codes. The codes are indeed random. Most had Upper/Lower paint code plus interior paint code on the firewall. (e.g. 50M of 10A) However there were many other things written there (or not)

1. Paint codes on body-in-white before the paint.
2. Paint codes over paint but under firewall blackout. As this was paint crayon it usually bled and the firewall black flaked off to reveal it.
3. GMAD might have wrote a rejection code on the firewall black which sent the body back to Fisher. Sometimes for no reason at all.
4. Option codes written by GMAD like L78 for AC or anything else.
5. GMAD order of build Sequence numbers (1-3 digits)These were also on the frame, inner fenders, and hood but never seen as they were wiped of during dealer prep.
6. Simple numbers like 8 to indicate base 307
7. Messages to other workers like when to take lunch.
8. Dealer stock codes or other dealer related info.

Just take what you find and replace them. I do not recommend adding them if they were not there.
