Oh boy, back to this car!

The dash bezel is interesting, we are trying to figure out why some dashes received more/less chrome edging than others. It appears to be both a year change thing, and an interior option change thing.

The trim tag is spot on, as there is no 1,2,or 3 on the bottom row. This number would indicate how many body moldings the car should have, in this case, none! The moldings would be drip rail, door frame, body side, or rocker. A 2 or a 3 on the bottom row would indicate some combination of the moldings.

Thanks Manishnark

What do the 1970 Deuces show on their trim tags in this location?
Are they all void of this 1-2-3 number designation?

Yes, all deuces except one have this position blank. Only the gobi beige deuce of Jerry Albert has a number in this position, which confirms it's moldings. Also, the original owner pics of that car also show it with the moldings.

On a 1970 nova if it has an "In-Dash" tach showing a 6500 red line ...would that be a 375hp car if it came with a big block?

Yes. I believe allen396 has a link to some pictures showing the 3 styles. The high horse cars had the top redline.
