When engineering need a car, they ordered it - from the plant. Nowhere else in GM did the tooling exist to assemble that vehicle. Engineering could and did modify cars, but that's not assembling it.
Early pilot builds might not have a VIN, but they are not saleable units and were not sold (e.g. your 1990 Olds).

This car is 168877L166557, 05E, near the end of the year. It has major issues from what I hear.

There *was* one 67 L72 built. JohnZ owned it. &quot;I bought it directly out of the Chevrolet Engineering Fleet in December of '66 with 3,000 miles on it; it was special-ordered out of Flint Assembly with the L-72 4-speed and used by the Chassis Development Group when I was working at the Chevrolet Pilot Line in Flint.&quot;
