Hi All, Apologies if this is redundant, but I haven't been able to get this identified online with any clear result.
Can anyone point me to the best way to get these codes id'd? I've got the 348 Julian, and 9793020 which is supposed to i.d. the 1968 model year. But if I look up the 1968 Julian calendar, 348 is Dec 13, 1968. My build sheet and PHS docs have the car built in March of '68. That would mean that the rear was cast 8 months after the car was built.
Two questions: 1. Could it be possible that this rear was cast in dec of 67, and marked for the 1968 models (considering the model years arent really based on the calendar, but mostly market releases in the mid-late summers prior to the model year?) That would mean that the Julian calendar for 1967 sets this 348 cast date on Dec 14, 1967. That aligns nicely with my build date and makes me happier. 2. Whats the other code? Looks like an "FD"....
'68 400HO Coupe, 4 spd, 259 interior, Windward Blue. My other car's a Johnson 15 outboard on a '61 Starcraft rowboat... Just sayin'.
