Re: Turbo Rocket-Oldsmobile COPO?
Good question.
The 1962-63 GM Y body quarter panels did not go into the roof at all. You can see the roof seam extend below the top on the quarter panel when you look in the trunk. That is the purpose of the chrome molding along the bottom of the roof on all Skylarks, Cutlass, etc GM Y bodies from those years, is to hide the seam.
It would make sense that it was pulled off the Fisher assembly line, since Fisher did the bodies. The body number for these cars is 3147 is on the trim tag.
