1969 COPO all matching on ebay

[jannes_z-28]

I keep a registry for cars made in May, there is some strange things going on in May. Probably because Firebird production started in Norwood at the end of May.

I have one X33 car in my registry with VIN only two digits after this one with N644667. But the trimtag BDY number is 32836 units after this COPO. The Z/28 has 05C on its tag.

These two cars should be just after each other on the line with one car in between them. So what date were they really produced? There are no cars with 05B produced.

Mine X77 with 05C is 260 units ahead of this COPO on the line.

You are so correct! Strange things happened all the time that experts say, oh that ain't right, that is wrong,lol! Being a dealer during those times were crazy and I looked at these personally. We got in some Camaros with Firebird steering wheels and a couple with a Firebird emblem or two. Cars were great but quality control my butt! GM was not worried about crap matching, if it fit put it on! Lets sell cars boys!! Thanks for your letter! Dennis Jr.

A VIN of N644667 would have been final-assembled on or about May 14.

The 'BDY' number had nothing to do with production scheduling.
