The "FLT" can and sometimes does refer to a Fleet order..Back in 1993/1994 I ordered a number of B4C (police pursuit package)Z28's for the dealership I worked for. The cars were all ordered on a purchase order through our fleet department, as Chevrolet wasn't building 6 spd cars as quickly on stock or customer ordered cars. We then converted the cars over to retail units, yet they still carried fleet codes on the paperwork..It could be your car was done the same..a way for the dealer to get a car quicker or maybe even for it to be built at all..Just a thought

Way back in time (1969 for example) a fleet car was also one that the dealer ordered for inventory, not for a specific customer. The 69 dealer order sheet has two boxes on it that designates a customer order, or fleet order.

You're probably right, because I know this car was ordered for inventory.

Where on the sheet is this code located?

In the area with all options?

The only reference I find for FLT is in the current RPO list
FLT Sales Processing Option

The code is located between the option codes in box 3 on the first line of codes. There are also a couple of empty boxes below that are labeled "copo f & so"

I looked in a old reference book I have with the complete options lists and FLT is not there.

Any chance you have a image to post?

I don't understand where box 3 is, all the built sheets I have show the options listed in Box 107. Are you referring to a Trim Broadcast sheet?

FWIW - All the codes in the F range refer to axle and suspensions.

Yes, It is the trim broadcast sheet found under the rear seat. Sorry for the confusion!

No problem.

I would bet this is not an RPO code, Could be that plants code for something totally unrelated to option content but that a WAG.
