I had never heard of any color reference on the crayon markings - only X3, X7, etc for X33 X77 etc. - Anyone else heard of interior or exterior colors noted on the rear seat support?
Any thoughts on what the car is worth? |

It has been noticed on other cars, DG would be the interiors color i.e. Dark Green and the digit 3 is for X33.

The DG3 designates the dark green interior with X33, we have in our shop a 20k mile X33 Z with dark green interior with the same crayon markings. An X11 Copo with dark green interior I have recently seen was DG1 in crayon.

Mark you are correct my bad... I mixed up firewall marks, and actually have that noted in various post before... It must be an age thing....

My early 69 Z/28 has the same markings. I bet the same person or shift built both our cars. Mine is Fathom Green with a DG interior. Darren also showed me a picture of a car that said R1 and the car had a red interior with X11 trim. Both my car and the red interior car were built around the November of 1968 date with no X codes on the tag.

I think the reason the inside trim color was noted like this was done a call out for the color to be applied to the I panel below the padded dash.

Mike,
That seems to make sense as the interior paint would have otherwise been black. I learned something new today ![]() |

The fathom green/dark green interior car here is an 03D built car. The X11 Copo I mentioned was a very late 10A built car. The crayon code notes the color of the dash and rear package tray area paint since it is non black.

The O1 code found on the Norwood pacecars indicates Orange interior X11 style trim.
