The "233" on our firewall doesn't go with anything on our cowl tag. The number is in the top drivers side corner of the firewall and would normally be hidden by the fender. On the outside of the cowl, on the driver's side, ahead of the door hinges is "2100" and some other numbers that I can't read. Any Ideas?

Keith, that's where my 69 Camaro has the seq # written in crayon and it matches the seq # on my broadcast sheet. Do you have a broadcast sheet or the build sheet? My car also has a 72 written on the middle of the firewall and that matches the 72 paint for Hugger Orange.

The "233" appears to be written on the black paint, not under it. We have the car apart and there was no paper work anywhere. Our Baltimore built SS396 was the same. Luckily we can get GM of Canada documentation up here. I'll have to do some light sanding on the fire wall to see what else I can find. Thanks for the tip Jeff.

Keith, instead of 233 can it be Z33 and be a Canadian RPO? Just a guess.

Joe, it is definitely a 233.

Keith,

It should be the SEQ# from the GM Body or Chasis Broadcast copy. Did you find either one of these? The SEQ# would be on top of the black paint.

The 69 L78 Chevelle on ebay has a Body Broadcast Copy with SEQ# 246. 246 is reproduced on the Differential Cover and the spare. These are some examples where SEQ# might appear on a car. Greg

This probably is the last of the sequence number as it is on top of the black paint.

I did some light sanding on the firewall. No other crayon marks came up. I did find the VIN "9B412667" stamped upside down below the round heater housing hole as well as below the rectangular hole at the bottom right hand side. I have taken pictures of everything for future reference.

Baltimore also assembled El Caminos. I wonder if the vin numbers were in sequence. If so the El Camino vins would space out the Chevelles and may cause gaps depending how they were scheduled.
