Frequently Asked Questions

Short answer: A car is considered “numbers matching” if all the part numbers and casting codes are correct and pre-date the car by the usual 1–3 months. Use the year-specific drivetrain ID pages on FGF as your guide:

Short answer: A 1967 trim-tag model number like 67-2-2637 decodes as: 67 = year, 2 = division (Pontiac), 2637 = style — where 26 = Custom Trim and 37 = Firebird coupe. The “23” listed in the ID books is the VIN identifier, which didn’t distinguish standard vs. custom trim.

The RPO options (Fisher Body accessory codes) are listed along the bottom of the 1967 trim tag — for example L, 2GW, 3F, 4Q, where 3F denotes the “400” option. These are the “Five Group Accessory Codes.”

Short answer: On 1967 body tags, accessory options are encoded in a “Five Group” system (along the bottom of the trim tag), discontinued after 1967. The letter codes for each group are below — some remain unknown, and the Registry is still decoding them.

278     07B
ST  67-22667      LOR     9854   Body
TR  256-Z                  K-2   Paint
          EX  2EWGH  3M
          4F   5Y

Also note: the consecutive build number on the body tag won’t match the VIN’s sequential production number — they had different meanings at the plants. Have codes to add? The Registry is still solving these — use the contact/report link to help.

Short answer: Trim code 281 is the saddle (tan/brown) leather interior — a genuine 1968 option, though a late-year addition (around early June), so check your invoice/billing date.

On a matching original car, the dash pad should be brown/tan/gold, and the convertible boot and deluxe wheel (if applicable) should be tan/brown to match. Note the 281 door panels used tan/brown vinyl with a “faux leather-grain” finish.

Short answer: On a 1969 paint code like 61F, the “61” (PNT 61) is the body color — Expresso Brown — and the trailing letter is the Cordova (vinyl) top color. The “F” most likely represents Dark Fawn.

The 1969 order form used numbers for top colors while the firewall data plate used letters, and the crossover between them is inconsistent (which is why this one is hard to pin down).

Short answer: That number near the distributor is the block casting number — the full number is 9786133, which denotes a 1967 400 cid block (it’s like a part number, not the sequential build/serial number, which is on the front passenger side).

Short answer: Pontiac rear-axle housings can be identified by year using their date codes, stamped codes, and a few physical features. The 1969 axle ID codes differ from 1967–68 — the full table is below.

When identifying a rear end, check the cast date codes (same style as engine parts), the axle code (rear of left tube), spring-perch depth (1967 Monoplates are shallow), the extra traction-bar brackets (1967 only), and the flattened spots on top (1969 only).

Short answer: On the Billing History card, the axle-ratio sales code appears in box 74 (1967) or box 37 (1968). The codes are the same both years:

Short answer: The billing-history line “F70x14 RL FG / TMT / $57.93 / $41.80 / $2.93” decodes as: the tires originally installed were F70x14 Redlines, Fiberglass-Belted; “TMT” is that tire’s sales code; the dollar amounts are tire cost plus final destination/handling charges.

Short answer: The numbers on the Billing History are sales codes, organized into groups (numbered 34 through 80). Within each group, the last digit identifies which option(s) you have — and if you have more than one option in a group, the option numbers are added together.

Short answer: The Body Broadcast Sheet was the assembly line’s build instructions for a specific car. It usually wasn’t meant to stay with the car, but many unrestored 1968s (especially Lordstown-built) still have at least one — sometimes up to four — full or partial sheets tucked somewhere inside (occasionally for the car built before yours).

The Broadcast Sheet uses supplier-component and Fisher Body codes, while the Billing History uses sales codes — different systems, but decoded properly both reveal the same basics (engine, trans, options, wheels). The Broadcast Sheet is also useful for authenticating and detailing a car.

Short answer: The body build-date code lives on the Fisher Body trim tag (firewall) and the Protect-O-Plate — it’s unique to the body shell and doesn’t appear on the Billing History. The body build date was generally about a week before the Billing History invoice date: the tag date is when Fisher Body sequenced the shell for build; the invoice date is when it cleared Final Assembly and certification just before shipping.

Short answer: A code like C363 in the upper area of the trim tag is from the Van Nuys, CA assembly plant — most likely an internal Fisher Body plant-sequencing code, loosely tied to the vehicle order number. No formal documentation has surfaced, and it has no connection to the VIN, body number, build date, or options.

Short answer: A code like K464 is an internal Van Nuys assembly-plant sequence number. It has no connection to the Body Unit Number, VIN, engine unit number, or invoice number — it’s strictly a plant sequencing number, and no GM or Fisher Body documentation has surfaced to decipher it.

Short answer: A code like T339 is an in-plant tracking / special-options code. Each 1969 assembly plant (Los Angeles, Lordstown, Norwood) used its own coding system, and since no plant records have surfaced, these can’t be reliably deciphered.

Short answer: The Fisher Body Unit Number on the firewall trim tag is an internal sequencing number, unique to each assembly plant — it is not sequential and has no direct relationship to the VIN or build date. The Broadcast Department assigned it based on the order’s color, model, options, etc., and cars weren’t built in the order received.

Short answer: Carburetor number 7037262 decodes as a 1967 (4th digit “7”), late-half-of-year (3rd digit “3”) unit for a California-emissions V-8 automatic (last digit even = automatic; odd would be manual). It doesn’t list as a Firebird carb — likely a GTO unit. It’s a rare carb worth trading, but not worth spending a lot to fix if it isn’t correct for your car.

Short answer: The 1968 Custom Trim Option is code 554, and the trim-tag style number tells you what your car has. Note that the Custom Trim Option (554) and the Custom/Deluxe interior are separate — you can have the option with standard interior.

Any of these items could be ordered individually on a standard-interior car (22437/22467) — except the deluxe interior itself, which defines 22637/22667.

Short answer: The 1968 Custom Trim option (554) included: Custom seat covers (Morrokide + stitched knit vinyl), custom molded door and quarter trim panels, the assist bar above the glovebox, dual horns, deluxe wheel covers, deluxe steering wheel, custom pedal trim, front & rear wheel-opening moldings, drip-rail moldings (coupes), and windshield-pillar garnish moldings.

Short answer: A few weeks’ gap between an engine’s date code and the Fisher Body trim-tag date is completely normal — nothing to worry about. The rule of thumb for drivetrain parts is roughly 2 weeks to 3 months before the body build date (about 6 weeks is the usual maximum), and generally not after, though exceptions exist.

As always with date codes, there are no absolutes — inventory control 30 years ago wasn’t what it is today.

Bulletin 68-I-12 — Pontiac Motor Division Dealer Service Information Bulletin, Section 2, dated October 10, 1967. Attention: Service Manager.

Subject: 1968 Refinish Paint Specifications.

Short answer: Copies of the 1968 Pontiac refinish paint charts from Ditzler, DuPont, and Rinshed-Mason were attached to this bulletin; a complete listing of 1968 exterior and interior paint color names, codes, and stock numbers was scheduled to appear in the November Pontiac Chassis Parts Catalog.

Bulletin 68-I-37 — Pontiac Motor Division Dealer Service Information Bulletin, Section 5, dated January 31, 1968. Attention: Service Manager.

Subject: 1968 Tempest Rear Brake Drums.

Short answer: Some early-production 1968 Tempests were built with Kelsey-Hayes rear brake drums stamped “F” instead of the specified “KH” identification. Future drums will use the combined code “KH-F.” All three codes (“KH,” “F,” or “KH-F”) represent acceptable Kelsey-Hayes drums — a variation between right and left drums is not a concern.

Short answer: A Pontiac dealer code on your build sheet or Billing History breaks into three parts — a Region code, a Zone code, and a Dealer code. The full lookup tables, a step-by-step decoder with examples, and a form to contribute additions are all below.

The codes and most of their meanings were compiled by the Ultimate GTO Picture Site, the Generation-1 Firebird Registry, and Wallace Racing.

Short answer: 1969 body-tag color coding is notoriously confusing — it varied by plant and even by shift, since these were built “BC” (before computers). Two expert readings of that “G”: it may be the Antique Gold convertible-top color (an “Upper Color” on the 1969 order form), paired with Verdoro Green paint; or, converting GM corporate codes to Pontiac codes, “73” = Verdoro Green and the following “G” = Dark Green. The trim code (206) is standard green vinyl.

Bottom line: 1969 tags really only tell you body style, color, and trim — and even those have plant-to-plant deviations. As the experts put it, 1969 is the hardest year of the three to decode.

Short answer: The key documents for researching a 1967–69 Firebird are the Trim Tag, the Chassis and Body Broadcast Sheets, and the Billing History — with the Billing History being the most important.

Short answer: For a 1969, the way to confirm a numbers-matching engine is that the VIN on the dash matches the partial VIN stamped on the front right-hand face of the block (the partial VIN was also stamped on manual transmission cases and hidden on the body shell). The Engine Unit Number is a separate sequencing number — found on the Protecto-Plate and Chassis Broadcast Copy — with no tie to the VIN, so without the original Protecto-Plate it can’t be verified.

Short answer: The clue is the partial VIN stamp (20P105982): the leading 0 means a 1970 car, and the P means it was built at the Pontiac assembly plant (which was building full-size cars like Catalina/Bonneville that year). For 1970, “YD” indicates a 2-barrel 400, ~290 gross hp from a full-size Pontiac — so this engine isn’t a 1967 Firebird 400.

Short answer: The engine build-date code is on the top surface around the distributor hole — a letter plus three digits: the letter is the month (A = Jan, B = Feb, …), the next two digits are the day, and the last digit is the year. Example: B157 = Feb 15, 1967.

Short answer: The engine “serial” (Unit) number and the VIN are two different numbers and will never match. But starting in 1968, a partial VIN was also stamped on the block — on the front lower face near the timing cover/harmonic balancer — and that should match your car’s VIN. If it does, it’s the original engine for the car.

Short answer: A one-digit difference like 205848 vs. 205818 is almost certainly the same number — a weak or partial stamping, not a wrong engine. The Engine Unit Number and partial VIN were hand-stamped (shallower than the code stamp), and the gang-stamp tool could slip during the strike, leaving a “4” looking like a “1.” Given how close they are, it’s the original engine — nothing to lose sleep over.

Short answer: A three-digit code to the left of the build-date code on the top line of the trim tag (e.g., “111” before “05C”) is most likely the Fisher Body Sequence Number used for production scheduling.

Short answer: The one hidden VIN most people agree on is the cowl VIN, stamped below the cowl cover. Beyond that, claims of “secret” VIN locations are mostly speculation — suspected spots include somewhere on the subframe, along the trunk gutter, and on the floor pan, but these aren’t reliably documented. Non-factory weld seams are the easier authenticity tell.

Short answer: “Numbers matching” means the body and its drivetrain (engine/trans/axle) are the original parts that left the line together, verified by VIN, part/casting numbers, and date codes. Here’s what each number on the car means:

Short answer: “Special” means the car got the Special Paint Option — a color Pontiac didn’t offer as a standard choice. In 1968 these were usually Pink Mist, Carnival Red, Marigold Yellow, or Windward Blue Iridescent (“Irid.” = metallic; the others were solid).

Some were late-year spring-release colors, and essentially any color was available if the supplier could provide it — such cars often shipped with an extra quart of paint. (The number after “Special” denotes the top.)

Short answer: A “PRIME” paint code (PRIME-XXX) means the car was handled as a special paint situation — primer only or special-order paint, seen on things like special orders, race cars, or company cars. It’s uncommon. The “2” indicates a black top.

Short answer: The Protect-O-Plate is a small credit-card-style plate (kept in the owner’s manual) that identified the car for warranty service — it was run through an imprint machine like a credit card. The format varied: some are plastic that read normally, others are metal imprinted in reverse and mounted on card stock.

Short answer: For a 1968 Firebird with disc brakes, the correct Rally II wheel code is “JC” (the same as drum brakes) — per the 1968 Service Manual, 1968 Parts Book, broadcast sheet, and verified original cars. The widespread “JA for disc” claim is a technical error carried over from the 1967–68 GTO / 1967 Firebird.

Information is subject to change and offered as is without any warranties or guarantees. Please review our Term's Of Use for more information.

Short answer: Pontiac wheel/Rally II codes are confusing — per a 1971 parts book, 1967 used JA (disc brakes) and JC (drum brakes), while 1968 used JC for all (even though the disc parts were the same for 1967 and 1968). The full application/code table is below.

More detail on decoding the codes stamped on a rim: the Classic Pontiac Server wheel page and Wallace Racing’s rally-wheel date-code page.

On the 1968 Rally II, the wheel rim code is on the outside of the rim, right next to the valve stem (see below). On the inside of the rim (the flat part connecting the inside and outside) you’ll find the date code, plant code, inner-wheel code (JJ), and size (14 x 6).

Short answer: Rally II wheels came in 30–40 varieties — the only way to know what you have is the two-letter code at the valve stem (that’s the WHEEL code the parts book uses: rim + center + offset). A code stamped inside the rim is just the rim type; the larger center hole is a non-issue (caps fit), but offset matters.

Short answer: The two-letter axle code is stamped on the driver’s-side axle tube, facing the rear, roughly 6″ from the differential cover (near/to the left of the brake clip). It’s often rusty — expect to wire-brush/sand to read it.

Short answer: Leather (code 281, Saddle) became available on the 1968 Firebird on June 6, 1968, only with the Custom Trim option and only in that one Saddle color. It’s a very rare option — documented on only a few 1968 Firebirds in the Registry.

Short answer: A “SHOW” code (SHOW-1, SHOW-2, etc.) means the car was built as a show vehicle — scheduled during pre-production by Engineering or Styling, built on the regular line but treated specially, with better fit and finish and unique extra-shine paint. They’re rare (usually very early production), and a “SHOW” first-gen Firebird is a genuinely rare find.

Short answer: Carousel Red was a special-order paint (code SPR) for the 1969 Firebird — and despite the popular legend, there’s nothing more special about it. It was GM’s answer to the bright colors Ford and Chrysler were running in the psychedelic era.

Short answer: The number on the body tag and the VIN won’t match — that’s normal. The VIN is the sequential production number; the body-tag number is the Unit (consecutive build) number. They’re separate systems.
