Re: TIre Markings
I have seen similar codes on REAL Survivor Chevelles.
For Example,Bill Bonhams Baltimore LS6. I have over 50 pix of his Chevelle,and his paperwork supplied by him. On his spare tire he has "72" written on top of itself on the Backside of the tire,and also inside the rim,with what I took to be soapstone. On his Buildsheet,he has "0272" written on the lower right side.I take this to mean a Job #.

Re: TIre Markings
Thanks for the info. My 69 TA had the last two digits of the job # on the cross member just like Camaros. I guess the seperate divisions of GM did a lot of the same things to ID parts on the assembly line. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: TIre Markings
I work in the Oshawa truck plant. The tires get the last two numbers from the production run number for that vehicle. Might be the same back then as well. It allows the installer to catch mixups in scheduling when he is putting the wheel/tire on the truck. Just a thought.
