Default 1965 Pontiac GTO Trim Tag

1965 Pontiac GTO Trim Tag.

Does anyone know what the 43-IW in the right lower corner identify?

Yes - according to a document that I have seen it references the &quot;side frame or fixture used to hold body panels in proper position during welding&quot;.

Knowning this number allows the engineers and manufacturing folks to track back to a particular fixture and helps with root cause/diagnosis of problems.


Thanks, Mike -
