That is an LA trim tag I believe...that is not the X codes that they used on the Norwood cars... I believe that is some internal plant code..and just a coincidence that it contains x-44..

please correct me if i am wrong...

I always read these vehicle descriptions and the flags wave like crazy when the seller can't speak (or type) Engrish!

The code on Van Nuys plant tags are for internal factory scheduling. The letter is a day of month code and the numbers are just sequence if the schedule.


I'm not sure it is a real Z, some signs of it and some not.

Clearly it looks to be an early built Van Nuys car (LOS) and looks to have 10D on the body tag (4th. week October). There were no X coded cars built in the Van Nuys plant. They were built in Norwood. According to Jerry MacNeish's fact book, X coded cars were stamped on the body tags at about December, 1968. Not quite sure what that X443 means on that trim plate but X44 is a base car. X33 and X77 were stamped on Z/28's. Hope this helps.
