This thread would certainly be enlightening for the new owner. I don't know what was disclosed on the display board, but if not someone has some explaining to do!

My Canadian built Lemonwood Yellow L79. GM Canada documented. All owners are known back to the dealer's son who worked for his dad and drove this car as his demo in the summer of 1966. Has seldom seen factory A81 headrests. The ultimate sleeper!

I also know of a pair of SUV about 7 years ago that were GM Denali's but both were ORDERED with Cadillac on paint color!!!! And this was later 2000's when dealers didn't get the pull. Now we figured they were painted once they got to the dealer, but his bill of sale SHOWS it ordered with the Creme Brule color!!!! So it is possible the dealer did that and it is possible it was ordered that way? So what would be the correct thing to do for really? As it's possible that the original bill of sale states "body colored wheels and no black"? Sorta like radio or heater delete in rare occasions? Normally you have a radio, but if bill of sale originally says delete, what do you do????

Totally agree with the above! Just about anything was possible in the years these cars were built, but in the case of this L79, it says it's been restored. Those are not the original wheels, so I believe they were painted to match the body during the resto. The door sill paint corrected an ugly body color line that broke up the black rocker molding below the lower door trim on light colored cars. I don't know why anybody would want it removed. A Lemonwood Yellow '66 Nova SS would have come with this paint. I'm sure it was over looked in the restoration, which wasn't unusual.
While many instructions were just hand written on an order form (and sometimes got done), most factory deletes required an RPO code. To get a standard equipment heater deleted required RPO code C48. In Chevy IIs and Novas, radios were never standard equipment, so there was no delete, so a car described by an owner as radio delete is a misnomer. The car either didn't get a factory optional radio ordered or an optional radio got taken out at some point. Bob
