    The info on the trim tag says 07B 01523.

    So my car was the 1523rd car built during the month\year of (Fill in the blank) at the Leeds MO plant.

    Thanks,

    07B is the second week of July of the model year. What numbers are after BDY of the trim tag? Better yet, take a picture of the tag and we'll decode for you...

    I took this when I first got the car only to see the fire red paint code.

    I think it decodes:

    ST70 43437 KAN146??????
    TR 188 75 75 PNT
    07B 01523

    Very late production for 1970 model year. That 01523 number is for options installed on the car (I don't have stuff here to decode) and not the body number.

    75 is red paint, upper and lower body. TRim 188 is black buckets, ST 70 is 1970 model year, 43437 is GS 350 2dr hardtop, KAN is Fisher body plant, 146xxx is body number for that plant. HTH.
