Gobi Beige '70 Chevelle L78

[Day2_69Z]

All the C means is Chevrolet ...KO code.
This started very late on 69 - 70 titled first gen Camaros and of course for Model Year 70 GM cars and light duty truck.
B O P C did the same thing on drive lines

FWIW, the POP looks OK but way too clean. The block is a restamp and would have actually looked pretty good with the cylinder head on if only they had stamped the VIN the way KC did them All the other stamps also look suspect, especially the axle tube. That build sheet is one of the worst I've seen and should go right into the trash bin. If for some reason this was a real L78, the fake provenance has killed it. It's a shame, looks like a beautiful car.

I get what you mean about the 'C' standing for Chevrolet, but I've seen other L78 Nova docs from the fall of 69 and they have CKO on the POP. Why would Chevelle be different..??

Same thing on the axle code...our POP says CBT...not 'BT'..

I would like to hear from some of the Chevelle gurus...always happy to learn something new.

I've seen them both ways, no idea what the rhyme or reason is. Maybe someone more experienced with POPs can chime in as to why.
