GTO POP decipher

[mockingbird812]

Need some help. I speak Chevy pretty good but a couple of codes have me baffled on this POP. Thanks, Sam

[mockingbird812]

The POP is from a one owner '67 GTO convertible. The cowl tag (see below) and PHS indicate that the car was built in the 2nd week of June. The VIN on POP and car match as well as the engine production # and engine code on the POP and block. But, the "P"
code for the tranny on the POP indicates the "H" month of '67 as the assembly date of the tranny. Actual code on tranny reads "P7D21" which would be appropriate for a car built in June I can not see the partial VIN on the tranny case. It may be on top.

I wld also like to know wrt to the POP:

1. what the "FO" is before the tranny code?
2. what does the "223 LL" mean? (trim code+body color+??)
3. what does the "1H" and "T" on the same line mean?

Thanks for yr help.
Sam

Jeff,

Thanks for reversing the picture. The link to Mattinglys site is good for VIN and Cowl Tag, but no info on POP that I could see.

FO is for the wide ratio M-20.
LL is the paint code

Thanks firstgenaddict. I guess the "FO" wld be found on the Build sheet if I had one. The first L reflects the marina turq. color. Does the 2nd L mean the same?

Thanks,
Sam

Depending on what color Convt Top it should be coded different than a "L"

Per the Cowl tag ("L2") and the actual car it is a black top car.

223 [Black buckets]LL Mariner Turquoise,WT=400/335hp.FO=M20 4 speed P7H07 P=muncie,7[year]H07[june 7th] Trim Tag 06B june 2nd week. Nice car!!

Is the POP coded wrong then since it shows LL and should be L2. LL would mean upper and lower paint colors were Mariner Turquoise thus a Hardtop?
